I had problems with this but found a way around it: some of my dialogue
boxes were just too complex to contemplate rebuilding denovo.

Using Resource Workshop, I split my resource file up, so that each
dialogue (sorry, dialog) ended up in a separate file. Then I converted
each of these, one at a time.

For simple dialogue boxes, it probably isn't worth the effort.
