To open a WordPerfect file, do the following:

1. On the File menu, click Open.
2. In the Files of type list, click either WordPerfect 5.x or WordPerfect 6.x.
3. In the File name box, enter the name of the file that you want, and then click Open.

I suspect the problem is that it’s an Office 2007 document, which is a docx format. This is messing up a lot of people. You might want to go to the Open Office website and see if they’ve issued any updates or patches so that Open Office can handle the docx format.

The only other solution is when/if you can, go back to where you sent the document from (work? School?) and resave it as a Microsoft word 2003 version (which will be the more common .doc format, and that OpenOffice can handle just fine.)

hope this help
