quadrangulate problem
 

I'm new 2 Maya,
My faculty gave me a male body model 2 practice unwrapping in Maya.
It is in .obj format.........when I open d file it shows all d faces as triangles,not quads.
when I use d option mesh---->quadrangulate it doesn't work.
plz help......

Quadrangulate only works when the meshes are triangulated a particular way. If you want to fix it, I'm afraid you'll have to go in, and delete the triangles by hand.
