Does anyone know of any simple way to convert .123 files over to Excel in
some sort of Batch method? So far I have not had much luck.

.xls with ease!! Why is this? Does anyone know? Is there some sort
of special code behind the scenes or is it a ware between microsoft
and lotus? I am talking about 25,000 spreadsheets that I need to
convert!!
If you don't have Lotus any more you might look at Open Office
(www.openoffice.org) I have a feeling that will open 123 files and will save
as xls files. (Got it at home but not at work so I'm not 100% sure on that
one)

I did find Conversion Technolgies. They are Microsoft partners, but they
are not cheap.
We currently use Lotus Smartsuite 9.8, and Yes we would like to convert atll
25,000 all at once.. some of our users would never figure out how to do a
save as.. they do good to save them to the network. I need this to be as
simple as possible, but it sounds like no matter what I do it is not going to
be fun. I found another software called ABC Amber lotus converter. Anybody
have any opinions on this software?

There's no shared code between the projects (although I'm working to
change that).
Can you send over details of the problem so that we can fix it ?

Gordon said:Come on, if your users can't do a "save-as" how the hell do they use
spreadsheets? Perhaps a little bit of confidence in the ability of
your users wouldn't come amiss rather than a rant as to why you can't
"convert 25,000 spreadsheets all at once". "Save-as" is a VERY VERY
BASIC operation.
This really does not explain how I would do it in batch and this discusses
..wk4 format. I am looking to convert thousands of files from .123 - .xls
