Thank you. &nbsp;I will close my question since my question was a &quot;batch&quot; conversion of 22,000 lotus files not a 1 by 1

Thank you.  I will close my question since my question was a "batch" conversion of 22,000 lotus files not a 1 by 1

yes I appreciate that, I did find a routine that claims to handle batch conversions but when I investigated I found it generates errors with 123 files. <br />

Alternatively you could try this link and use a copy of smartsuite (which can open .123) &nbsp;to create a macro:-<br />

We have acquired a company that has several hundred files with .123 file extensions which can not be opened with excel. &nbsp;Does any one know of a company or utility to do this? &nbsp;There is one computer left that can open individually and do a save as but this Pc is dying and of course no there is no software to load on a new machine.

Batch conversion of .123 files

Office Productivity refers both to the act of being productive and efficient in an office or professional environment, as well as the software applications used to "produce" information. This includes the development of professional skills, creating work processes, and almost any program used to create or modify a document, image, audio or video clip. However, business application suites such as Microsoft Office, which include word processing, spreadsheet and presentation programs, are typically called productivity software, as contrasted with a "utility program," such as a file manager, which is used to organize files and folders on the computer. Many office- and business-oriented groups of programs are organized into suites.
