How do I convert Quattro Pro worksheet?
 
I am trying to open a Quattro Pro worksheet, extension qpw, into an excel
2002 spreadsheet. Any suggestion on how to do it?

Only two possible suggestions.

1. Use a recent version of Quattro Pro to open the QPW file, then save
it from Quattro Pro in XLS format.

2. Use DataViz's Conversions Plus product to QPW files into XLS files.

Once you have an XLS file generated from the QPW file, open the XLS
file.

The Conversions Plus product info mentions it supports Quattro Pro 9,
which was the first version that used QPW file format. If your QPW file
uses only Quattro Pro 9 features, Concersions Plus may handle it.
However, it'd be cheaper to buy a recent version of WordPerfect Office
(which includes Quattro Pro) than ConversionPlus, and if the QPW file
you have uses features from later Quattro Pro versions, your best
option is to use the latest version of Quattro Pro.

Microsoft provides no support whatsoever for QPW files. Since that file
format has been around for more than 7 years now, it's highly unlikely
Microsoft ever will support it.

Site says for Excel 2003 but the Quattro Pro convertors should work with Excel
2002

But..........no guarantees<g

That's nice. These converters are for WB1 and WB3 files, not QPW files.
