Hi Ant

I've recently had the same problem, but I think you will find wps is the
suffix for stuff produced with Microsoft Works. I'm still struggling with
this but I've been able to read files (admittedly partly garbled) choosing
'files of type' set to 'recover text from any file' using dropdown in the
'open' dialogue.

Hi, I have received some attachments with WPS extension, created with
Word Perfect, so far I have not been able to view these, as Word (2000)
does not recognise them. is there a work around for this

Thanks, Ant.


I believe that the first .wps filter was distributed with Word 2002.
