Most of the time you can save a Lotus 9 file as an Excel 97 file and have it
open OK. Occasionally I have had a problem getting Excel to recognize a file
and just open a new Excel file and copy the Lotus file into it.

Hello, Frank;
Are you sure the converter is needed? Microsoft Office Online Help shows
me
these words: "For example, if you open a Lotus 1-2-3 file with a .wk3
extension, Excel saves the file as a Lotus 1-2-3 file with a .wk3
extension.
If you make changes to the file in Excel, you should save the file in an
Excel file format to be sure all of your changes are saved. To do this, be
sure to use the Save As command and select Microsoft Excel Workbook in the
Save as type box." And, "When you open a Lotus 1-2-3 worksheet or workbook
in
Excel..."

Hi
either save the file in Lotus 123 as Excel file or try a commercial
converter (e.g. www.dataviz.com)
