Thumbs up Answer: How do I open a .rpt file?

A .rpt file is typically associated with Crystal Reports software, which is used for creating and designing reports. However, if you want to open a .rpt file in Microsoft Word or another MS text editor, you may need to convert the file to a compatible format first. Here's how you can do it:
  1. Open Crystal Reports software and open the .rpt file you want to convert.
  2. Click on the "Export" button in the toolbar or go to "File" "Export".
  3. In the "Export" dialog box, choose a file format that is compatible with Microsoft Word or another MS text editor, such as "Rich Text Format" (RTF) or "Microsoft Word (97-2003) - RTF".
  4. Choose a location to save the converted file and click "OK" to start the conversion process.
  5. Once the conversion is complete, you can open the converted file in Microsoft Word or another MS text editor by double-clicking on it or using the "Open" command in the software.

Keep in mind that the formatting of the original .rpt file may not be preserved in the converted file, so you may need to make some adjustments to the layout and formatting in Microsoft Word or another MS text editor.
