What version of word are you using? I have office 2K. I can open a word perfect document from "file" --> "Open"; just change the document type at the bottom of the window to word perfect 5.x (or whatever). Then if you want you can do a "save as" and save the document in word format. If you don't have the option to open a word perfect document in word, maybe you haven't installed the word perfect converters.

Hey guys.. i know dave.. and he has office 97.. Wordperfect 7 also.. is there any website that would have a program to change this also????

bjc112,

The conversion utilities are built into Word, although sometimes you have to specify that you want them installed. I'm not sure if WordPerfect 7 is one of the converters included on the Word disk, but if not you can probably get it from

office.microsoft.com

Look through the download section and I bet you'll find it.
