There are two other possibilities: * If you have access to a UNIX machine with FM6, use it's fmbatch utility to open the 5.5.6 files and save them in FM6 format. fmbatch doesn't give you a dialog and can batch convert all files by creating a very simple command file. * It's possible that the free DZbatcher utility works in the same way, but I think it's only available for Windows?
