.wpd File Extension

Anybody know what this is?

Client just sent new content in .wpd format and Word chokes on it. Anybody know what the heck this is?

I think those are WordPerfect files. Did a quick google search which seems to confirm this.

Thanks...thought it might be but Word usually opens those w/o a problem.

I've only heard of .wpd being used for WordPerfect. You might want to double check the Word installation to make sure that the filters were installed - much of that kind of stuff is optional during the install.
