I have some old data files that were saved in a quattro
pro format (*.wb1). According to the on-line help files,
I should be able to open these files from Excel 2003.
When I attempt to open the files, I get a message which
says that "the file format isn't supported, or the
converter isn't installed".
Since the documentation says that this format is
supported, I assume that the problem is that the
converter isn't installed.
After doing some searching, I find advice which says that
I should use "Add Programs" in the Control Panel to add
the converter. But when I do this, there are no options
for installing any spreadsheet converters.
Using the on-line documentation, I then find advice to go
to the download site to look for additional converters.
Following the instructions there, I downloaded and
installed the office converter pack. Despite doing this,
I still can't open up the *.wb1 files.
How do I verify that the converter is installed? What
else can I do to open that file? (It seems to me that I
used to be able to do this kind of conversion all the
time in Office 97.)
