I e-mailed my resume, received reply they couldn't open
attachment(it ends in .wpd)and was told to send as Word
document. How do I do this? Please help. Thank you
 
Haven't used WordPerfect for a long time - try the save us and see if there are any
other formats you can save the document in that Word can read.

Word uses .doc as default but also reads .rtf
 
Almost 90% of the world uses MS Word in some form or other.. in order that
your WordPerfect documents can be read in Word, you must 'SAVE AS' and
select a format that Word can read.. eg.. a .txt (text) or .rtf (Rich Text
Format) file.. not sure which version of WordPerfect you are using, but you
may also have the option of saving as a .doc file.. this info applies to
users of Lotus WordPro also..

Nothing like making a good first impression.
 
Save As, in File type find an appropriate Word version, or, as has been
suggested, save as RTF. Word Perfect saves into Word format and opens Word
format. If you have an early WordPerfect (v. 7 or earlier), it might not
save into Word97 format; then it is better to save as rich text format (NOT:
rtf help file).
