    WPS to WORD


    I have a new computer - Windows 10 - and I downloaded my document stuff from a flash drive-- no problem. I had always worked in Works but converted everything to Word or deleted it before transferring to the flash.

    However, today 1 item didn't convert and without thinking I tried to transfer it to Word and hit something wrong. Evidently I hit to convert EVERYTHING to WPS. All of my stuff is in WPS and I don't know how to convert it back. I even downloaded WPS Office and it wouldn't work it. I went back to reload from the flash again, and it only shows WPS. I just get boxes and Y's. Help!!

    :)

    How to associate Word with .WPS documents in Windows 10

    Hi Gardner

    Right click any wps file, choose 'Open With' - Choose Another App

    Important - Check the box marked 'Always use this app to open wps . . .'

    If Word is not in the list, scroll to the bottom and click 'More Apps'

    Again if Word is not in the list, at the bottom, click 'Look for another app on this PC', then navigate to find the application you want to use

    How to add new words to the built in dictionary in Omnia 7

    You can't add them directly, but there is a way within spell check. If you have several you know you want to enter, open a word doc, and type your company name in with a space behind it.Tap the name and it will have a squiggly underline. At the bottom where
    the suggestions are, the first one will be your company name with a little plus in front of it. Tap that and it will be added to the dictionary.

    If your company name is close enough to something that WP automatically 'fixes' it for you when you hit space, (the first item in the suggestion list is bold), don't worry, tap the replaced word, and again the first word in the suggestion list will be what
    you typed originally, with a plus in front. Again hitting the word/plus will add the word.

    That is a good hint for anytime WP replaces a word for you didn't want replaced. Just tap what it put in and your word will be first in the list of suggestions.

    Be careful, as I know how to get things into the list...I haven't a clue how you would get a mistake out WPS to WORD ;)
