Re: Opening .wk1 files

2013-03-21 Thread Harry Neutel and Associates
.wk1 is a Lotus 123 extension. If you have this program installed still try
opening it with the program itself.

 seems to work.

I’m not an expert, but I would try emailing them to yourself and then opening 
them from there.

I think .wk1 is an old QuattroPro extension.  If so open it in some version of 
that program and SaveAs a .xls, which Calc can then open.
Be forewarned tho, that the conversion may be imperfect -- some QuattroPro 
functions have no exact Excel equivalent.

 Open the program that you had been using for opening .wk1 files. 
Then open your files from within this program.
 What you have is a file association problem. If you use Windows, 
search Help for file association. It should tell you how to convert 
them back.
 For that matter, these files were not converted at all. Your 
operating system decided to change what program it will use to open 
these files when you double click on them.

Is it possible to get a word count in the text, or do you always have to go
back to tools.

Thanks
