Problem

Symptoms: A customer retrieved a file, originally created in WordPerfect 5.1, into Quattro Pro 1.0 and received the error, "Incompatible File Format." Solutions: The file was a WP secondary merge file converted to spreadsheet DIF format. Information from the Quattro Pro manual indicates the file must have a .DIF extension. Once the file was renamed with a .DIF extension, the problem was solved. The files must have a .DIF extension in Quattro Pro 2.0 as well. The user can look up Translation in the Quattro Pro manual for this information.
