Quattro Pro to Excel 2007

Post by Joe Delaronde »

I want to convert my Quattro Pro 9 files to Excel 2007 format.

My Quattro Pro 9 disk got mangled, so I can't re- install.

I can't find any conversion in Excel 2007 help files. Maybe it's not possible?

Using Win 7.
Any advice how to convert these files?
Thanks in advance.

Read the Microsoft Office article about importing QP spreadsheets into Excel and follow the link on the page to Office Updates.

Note, you must have a valid license for MS Office or Excel to download and install the converters from O.U.

In desperation I bought Corel Home Office with the assurance it would read the .qpw files. It cannot do so and Staples has a no return policy on open software.

All isn't lost. I downloaded the trial version of WP X5. I was able to open my .qpw files and save them to Excel.

Thanks
