It’s amazing which antique word processing files Word 2016 recognizes. For example, Word 2016 can open WordPerfect 5.1 files, no problem. Follow these steps to attempt that feat, albeit with your own antique word processing files:

  1. Press Ctrl+O.
    The Open screen appears.
  2. Click the Browse button.
    The Open dialog box shows up, which is a far better tool than the Open screen for hunting down files.
  3. In the Open dialog box, choose All Files (*.*) as the file type.
    The File Type menu restricts the files listed in the Open dialog box to only those types specified. The All Files (*.*) type lists all files, which includes formats Word may not recognize. For example, the old WordPerfect (for DOS) file type.
  4. Choose the file to open.
  5. Click the Open button.
    The file opens in Word, translated from whatever file format Word recognizes into a document.

If the file type isn’t recognized, Word displays the File Conversion dialog box, similar to what’s shown here. Work the controls in that dialog box to see whether you can massage the text into a digestible format. If so, click the OK button. If not, click Cancel and accept that the file can’t be opened.
