WinXXDataConverter is a Windows "GUI" application that will convert files between the various formats used by Win92, Win93, Win95, and Win96.

The program only converts data that is common between files. For example, if you are converting a P95 file to SPG, then none of the "SRn" settings will be converted. Likewise, if you are converting an SPG file to P95, and you have LTR trunking info, then the settings for those banks and channels will be the PRO-95's default "FM". Play with it a little to see how this works.

NOTE: The P96 (Win96) conversions are only from the other three formats to Win96. The program will not convert P96 files to the other formats.

Download latest version (this is a ZIP file - you'll need WinZip, PowerArchiver, or an equivalent decompression utility in order to extract files)

The link above is the program only - it doesn't include a couple of system files that are required to run it. If you're using a recent version of any Microsoft product, then you should already have these files. If WinXXDataConverter complains that it can't find a file or component necessary to run (or something like that), you can get the required files in this ZIP file. Merely extract the DLLs into the same directory/folder where you put the WinXXDataConverter.exe program.

• Fixed the file type selection process, so you no longer have to explicitly type the file's extension. The item selected in the "type" box, in both the Open and Save As windows, now controls the file's type.

Version 00.07 07 January 2004, 07:40 PST

• Fixed the file type selection process, so you no longer have to explicitly type the file's extension. The item selected in the "type" box, in both the Open and Save As windows, now controls the file's type.

Version 00.06 06 September 2003, 06:30 PST

• Added the ability to run from the command line, with no windows presented.
  For example:
     WinXXDataConverter MyFile.spg MyFile.P96
  will convert the PRO-92 input file "myfile.spg", creating a new PRO-96 output file "myfile.p96".

Version 00.05 03 September 2003, 14:00 PST

• Added conversions from SPG, P93, and P95 to P96.

Version 00.04 03 December 2002, 09:40 PST

• Redesigned the user interface. Instead of selecting a button that defines the input and output types, you now click on one button to open any supported file type, then click on a second button to convert to any other supported type. Once you've opened a file, you can save it as many times as you want (i.e. if you had a file that you want to convert to all of the other types, you only have to select the input file once, then just keep saving it). This also makes it a bit easier to add future file types - with the previous UI, there were N x N-1 buttons; now, there are only two.
• Also added a little bit of 'help' text.

Version 00.03 16 November 2002, 15:05 PST
