Does anyone know how it is possible to open Lotus WK4 files in Excel 2007?

If you look at the archives of this group you'll find that the question has

You can't.
Open it in something that will open it, and save as an Excel file.

Thanks David. I posted the query before I realised how much info was already
available. I've downloaded the OpenOffice Suite which I understand will
provide the stepping stone. Thanks again.

David,
Further to last post, I downloaded and installed OpenOffice but found that
the only Lotus 123 formats that it translates are *.wk1, *.wks and *.123. So
it will not translate *.wk3 or *.wk4. I don't know if there ever was a *.wk2
format.
In the end I had to use my wife's Excel2003 and change the registry to allow
the opening of my Lotus files and then to save them as .xls files.
Seems that the DataViz product would do it but that's $50 a pop.
So it goes...
