Yes, I have the data just fine in Word Perfect. How do I copy and paste it
into a new excel file? It is all in a line of fields. How do I make each
(like field 2) go into the second column on an excel sheet?

Can you open the file in WP and see the data? Simply opening it
shouldn't have affected the data, so I wonder if you saved it
(overwriting the original) inadvertently.

If so, you may be able to copy the data and paste it into a new workbook.

If you did overwrite it, and if you don't have a backup, you're probably
not getting the data back.

my excel file looks like a bunch of squarish circles and symbols with a few
words. How do I get my excel data back?
