The company I work for has decided to drop Quattro Pro 6.0 and convert to Excel 2000. My proble is that the Microsoft Knowledge base states that only Quattro Pro 5.0 and below files can be converted into Excel 2000. Please let me know if there is a third party utility out there to convert. Or if Microsoft has came out with an update. Thank you

One way to get your files into Excel is to open them in Quattro Pro, then save them down into either Quattro Pro 5 format (*.WB1) or to Lotus format (*.WK3). Neither solution is flawless. If you choose the *.WB1 format you will get the spreadsheetdata, but any graphs will not transfer into Excel. If you choose the *.WK3 format you will retain the graphs, but in many cases the formatting of the spreadsheet suffers.
