    I have a wpd file saved on flopy disk
    (written by someone else on a different computer) and when I try to read it I get
    too large for notepad msg,
    when I open it with word pad all it shows is some weird symbols and squares

    what am I doing wrong??

    If I'm not mistaken wpd is a word perfect file format. Most word processors should be able to open it, try MS Word or OpenOffice.
