What's new

v15.0
Certified Windows 11 compatibility.

v14.3 [Dec 12, 2020]
Registration issue resolved. Users who are attempting to upgrade options (e.g. Enterprise Edition or Server upgrade) and already had registered all users were running into problems. The newly purchased options were not being implemented.

v13.8 [Oct 6, 2020]
Converting to/from fixed width profile. This version allows for globally (non-user specific) placed fixed width profiles. If profile file is not in %appdata%\Softinterface, Inc\Convert XLS\Profiles\ 'Convert XLS' will also search for it in this global folder: %programdata%\Softinterface, Inc\Convert XLS\Profiles\

v12.4 [Jan 31, 2018]
Converting XLS/XLSX using MS Excel method. If sheets are hidden, they will be skipped.

v12.2 [Nov 8, 2017]
- When a sheet name was specified, and the name contained a - (dash) character the 'Convert XLS' would fail to find the sheet.

v7.4.0.253 [Mar 18, 2015]
Special process 116 was enhanced to allow for changing cells to a single or multiple space characters.

v7.3.0.960 [Jun 22, 2014]
7.30 (6/20/2014)
Application loads and exits faster now. Extra needless startup and shut down items removed.
Application prevents user from writing to operating system protected folders
User interface: The 'Conversion Task List' grid now auto-sizes the Input and Output file columns making it much easier to see everything.
User interface: CTRL-TAB and (SHIFT-CTRL-TAB) now works far Tabbed items within dialog boxes.
User interface: Adjusted user interface to handle Windows 7 64 bit default font size
User interface: The LOG displays much better now that the table autosizes allowing for the viewing of the error/warning.
User interface: Special Process 114 was simplified. If users are specifying a macro that is within an external workbook, often they forget to add the single quote character to both sides of the path. 'Convert XLS' not auto-corrects this now.
Demonstration 'Conversion Job' files are now installed in %AppData% folder.
If a 'Conversion Job' file (e.g. *.SII) has #OPEN.SII at the end of the filename then the 'conversion job' will only be opened for editing and not executed when chosen from Windows Explorer. For example a file named c:\MyJobs\WorkingOnThis#OPEN.SII will open within the user interface when double clicked. Without the #OPEN.SII the 'Conversion Job' file will execute as before.
Users can specify the following in the program and commandline:
%USERPROFILE% or %HOMEPATH%
%APPDATA%
%LOCALAPPDATA%
%MYDOCUMENTS%
%WINDDIR%

v7.1.0.251 [Nov 18, 2013]
- Registration upgraded to handle Windows 8.

v6.6.0.151 [Oct 20, 2012]
Special Process 206: It recognizes double quotes, and therby ignores comma's within it.

v5.4.0.35 [Sep 13, 2011]
- Japanese language file updated
