                        UTILITY <CONVERT-PRO> 
                        =====================

Now - with the help of CONVERT - all ASCII vocabulary files can be
transformed to the <VOCABLE-PRO> format and be used to learn
with the advanced features of <VOCABLE-PRO>.

If your old vocable files are not in an ASCII format, print a list
of all your vocables, but first detour printer output to file.

The program gives all the explanations necessary and guides you trough 
the procedure, just enter "CONVERT" on the command line.


CONVERT IMPORTS the following file formats:

1)      VOCABLE TRANSLATION                  [fixed length]     (C/R)
2)      VOCABLE TRANSLATION AFFIX_A AFFIX_B                     (C/R)
3)      VOCABLE AFFIX_A TRANSLATION AFFIX_B                     (C/R)
4)      VOCABLE,TRANSLATION                  [variable length]  (C/R)
5)      VOCABLE,TRANSLATION, VOCABLE, etc.       (NO CARRIAGE RETURN)  

The End-of-Field MARKER can be chosen (default is comma [CODE 44]).

MARKERS can be ignored between quotation marks !
Empty fields will be marked as "EMPTY !!".

<CONVERT-PRO> also allows to EXPORT <VOCABLE-PRO> vocable data files
into the above mentioned 5 different file formats.
