If the files are older than Autotrax and don't load into Autotrax, something is wrong. Before Autotrax, in the beginning, when the world was new, was Easytrax, also called Tango Series I in the U.S. Autotrax would have recognized an Easytrax file (though there might be a special load process, I was not an Autotrax user, except for the demo version, which I used to develop a Tango Series II - Autotrax converter (in both directions). But version 3? Version 3 would be later. Just before Protel 98. So when you open the files with a text editor, what do you see at the top? Is it a binary file or an ASCII text file? Early versions *only* came as ASCII text files. In short, what makes you think that these are Protel files? ____________________________________________________________ You are subscribed to the PEDA discussion forum To Post messages: mailto:[email protected] Unsubscribe and Other Options: http://techservinc.com/mailman/listinfo/peda_techservinc.com Browse or Search Old Archives (2001-2004): http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected] Browse or Search Current Archives (2004-Current): http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]
