In Finale 2010 they removed the ability to import Encore files
directly (so much for not removing functionality, eh?) In Fin2009 and
previous it is still there, under File>Import.
I think MusicXML might be an option too, but I don't know how that
works. Certainly you need the Encore file to be converted into
MusicXML format; whether that is something that is done from inside
Encore or if it is a standalone converter I couldn't say.
Yet another reason to keep old versions installed.
(BTW, when you say a "Score file" with the proper noun capitialised,
it makes us think for a minute that it is a file from the program
Score, which is a completely different animal. But only for a minute!)

Good day:
A friend sent me a Score file in Encore format with the idea I can
open this
in Finale. It apparently doesn't work.
Any suggestions? Do I need specific plug-ins?
Thanks kindly,
Kim
