Wordpad Error
The file has been saved in an incompatible format for Wordpad which has a
very limited choice of formats. If you don't have Word go here and download Abiword http://www.abisource.com/ It's a cross platform word processor, is free and will probably do the job.

Wordpad Error
I assume from the fact that you are asking in a Word group that you are
trying to open an e-mail message attachment directly in Word and you are getting the error? It is anyone's guess what the problem is and probably not helped by the fact that (I suspect) you are not displaying filename extensions so you don't really have a clue what the attachment is? Set Windows Explorer not to hide the extensions of know file types and then we can see what the full filename is. Wordpad files are (normally) in RTF format. Save the attachment to the hard drive. Open Word, then try and open the file. If you still get an error message - try downloading the old Word 6 filter from the downloads page of my web site. (Word 6 used RTF format). It is possible that the attachment has nothing to do with Wordpad (though of course you may know different) but is simply corrupt. Ask whoever sent it to zip it and send it again. E-mailing sometimes corrupts uncompressed Word documents. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Wai wrote: I encountered a problem when I tried to open a Wordpad attachment file.
