Excellent application, better than Data Viz

So I have tons of old files going back to 1987. I have tried over the years (once in 2004, once in 2009) to use DataViz MacLink Plus to migrate the files. The results were spotty and I lost the original creation date of the files when it upgraded.
I used Document converter to convert a bunch of old Office files. It handled Word and Excel incredibly well.
It had trouble now and then with Powerpoint losing formatting on idiosycratic graphics.
Naturally it couldn't open the old Microsoft Chart files and didn't handle some early MacWrite files - however - using Basilisk II I was able to access some of these odds and ends.
My suggestion is to point it to a directory and run it - then double check the results before deleting the old files.
Note you need to add the proper extensions to some files for it to recognize them.
Thus armed with Renamer (a handy utility that easily adds file extensions) and this application I saved hours of opening files and resaving them.
I really can't understand the review that complains about the lack of documentation. You don't need it. The interface is well designed.
The results were superior to MacLinkPlus and the price is a fraction of what I paid for that back in the day. Worth it.

Finally, AppleWorks files restored!

I had some old AppleWorks files (probably version 5 if not earlier) and before buying the software, I contacted the developer to ask if he’d try converting one of the files before I invested in the software. He replied by return, I sent the file, and moments later, it was converted! Have now used it on the rest. Worth every cent just to recover a series of family trees that span two hemispheres and around 10 generations of family history. The developer is very responsive, and I appreciated his help. The conversions do need a little editing (text boxes need re-sizing, or fonts down-sizing) but that’s a minor inconvenience and I don’t think there’s anything can be done about that (fonts have changed over the years). I heartily recommend.

Exactly the tool I needed, AND IT WORKS!!!

Great tool. Works great. User interface is a little old-school and could use some beatification but that does not affect the fact the program does exactly what it says it can do. I would like to see the option of having tags copied to converted files.

Thank you so much for witting this program. I searched very hard to find a simple tool to do batch conversion from xls to xlsx ( a frequent task I need to complete to input fies into an analysis program). It amazed me how difficult it was to find a program to do this and how few are availble. I would suggest you push to advertise your program with search terms as finding it was not easy. I also noticed you have written other programs to convert to PDF formats. It ouwld be nice to see a combined tool with a fresh interface. I would be happy to upgrade!
