I have a few reports that are automated through my access database, but I also have to edit it into a wordperfect document for back up purposes. Is there anyway to set up the report to be able to save in wordperfect format?
 
That all depends on if you can get the person that wants WordPerfect format out of 1995.

You can export the report to Word and then have Word save it in WordPerfect format, but really, it's in your best interest to ween that person off of antiquated software. If they're that stuck on WordPerfect, provide some analysis in Lotus 1-2-3, and don't forget to do the AutoDesk update. And remember to configure the extended memory.

Oh, and reset the KayPro.
 
I have no clue what Lotus 1-2-3, autodesk or Kaypro is... and I have no clue how to mess with extended memory.

As for using Wordperfect, I work with the Department of Justice, and that is the format we use. I prefer word, but most computers do not run it.

If I was to export it as a Word Document, with it's tables and bborders and styles, could they open it with Wordperfect? I know a normal document you can open it, as it formats it as it opens, but I dont know if that would mess up my non-character formating, like table borders, lines and the such.
 
The easiest way to find out is to try it. I don't have WordPerfect, so I can't answer that directly. As long as WordPerfect supports all the same things, you should be okay. You may get even better results by saving it as a Word document, and then going into WordPerfect and importing a Word file.
