To open existing Word Perfect files these should be converted to OpenOffice formats. www.zamzar.com offer a free online service for many format types.

Abslutely NEVER, I repeat N-E-V-E-R use MySQL if you want your data to be safe. MySQL was made by people who are "competent" enough to e.g. not even consider it necessary to enforce foreign key constraints by default. Use PostgreSQL.
