Open Lotus Word Pro in Word?

[ZENYO]

How can I open a Lotus Word Pro Document in MS Word?

Thanks

You should be able to get extra file type filters from your Office CD, or from the Office site.

I would think you would have to have the conversion/viewer installed that goes with Word to view those types of docs.

Have you tried just dragging it into Word to see if it opens it?

Or, just clicking File/Open in Word and the choosing "All types" of files?

What version of Word?

I have all the filters from the cd installed. Word opens it and the file converter opens it automatically but there is only language filters.

I'm Using Office 2000 Word 9.0

I need to open one file of that kind I have all filters and some extra filters that are in www.officeupdate.com, but no luck anyone knows a program to view that kind of files.

I'm not sure I follow. It's opening the documents, converting them from WordPro, but the language filter what?

Sorry Evil, You follow just fine it's me that's not following to well

When I opened the .lwp file in MS Word a language converter opened with it. I didn't have the converter utility installed Like I thought. I installed the converter but still no go. I'm gonna search more filters.

Kool. I thought one of us must be krazy!

You going French>English or English>French ?

I'm not converting language

THat's what word is trying to do though. I've got that part fixed. I just need the proper filter for the converter but i can't find it.

I am having the same trouble, I want to open a Word Pro document. Preferably i would like to open it it Word, but i was wondering if there is even a way that i can just view it?
