Please Help : (1) I am interested in joining this effort as a USER -- Not developer. (2) I am searching for a way to convert ( translate) several hundred files prepared under Quattro Pro ( dos , "for windows" and /or Corel version QP10). I am aware that it is possible to change each QPRO file to an Excel Format by simply Opening each file and then Saving AS excel ( xls ? ). Would this make it possible to then use Open Source Calc to add to / delete from or modify each file.. ? Alternatively, is there a way to convert directly ? Note that Quattro Pro was sold by Borland to Corel and that the corel version I have is dated 2002. ( with not much of a support base; forum etc. ) I am and old DOS familiar programmer, but do not know PERL, C+++, Pascal, or Fortran. Currently using Windows 7 but have access to Window XP Pro. Any and ALL help would be welcome.. Many Thanks . -- Have a Great Day !
