In a nutshell this is a program that works exactly like it says. I had several hundred files created with Clarisworks 2.0 word processing software. Conversion Plus converted them to Microsoft Word without a hitch. Everything was perserved: font, italics, spacing, it was all there. It saved me a few months worth of typing. Not a bad deal for $65.

Remember XTree? It could do just about everything. Conversions Plus, though a different kind of program, is also one of the great programs ever written.
Someone send you a graphic that's garbled? Or a WordPerfect file? Conversions Plus will bring them to light, easily, and (usually) perfectly.
It's one of those programs that will have you saying "how could I have worked without this?"

Installation went smoothly, but upon trial use of MacOpener (I have old digicam files I wanted to access) my PC went into blue screen mode when I inserted the first Mac CD. After spending an hour I recovered and used XP's System Restore to return to normal. I immediately removed Conversions Plus from my HD. I wouldn't recommend Conversion's Plus unless you get an adrenalin rush from system failures. The DataViz site admits to conflicts with other software, but I don't have the time to uninstall and check all of my applications and drivers against an app that I needed for occasional use of one element. Opened software is unreturnable unless you wish a duplicate of the same, so I'll eat the cost and chalk it up to experience. I'll have to find another solution to my problem, as Conversions Plus is not the answer for me.
