transpose wordperfect overheads to powerpoint

[Guest]

our church is moving into the 20th century. My old computer has most of our
overheads for music on Wordperfect. We want to put those on the laptop with
powerpoint. What is the easiest way to do that without our secretary doing a
lot of rewriting or copy and pasting.


thanks kerrie

One way would be to open the WordPerfect file using MSWord, and then use the
send to PowerPoint option

A lot will depend on the content. If it's mostly text, I'd go with Michael's
suggestion, then copy/paste any graphics you need to move over.

I'm not very familiar with Word Perfect. Every time we went on a date, it'd
end up in a brawl or worse.

But PowerPoint's WPG import filter's always been a pretty good one. If you can
export your overheads to WPG (Word Perfect Graphics) files, use PPT's Insert,
Picture, From File command to bring 'em in.
