I posted a similar request to this over in the alt.bbs forum and got
very little help, except from one gentleman who has helpful in getting
me to figure out what I should be asking for.

I in the subject line, I run a BBS under MS4 (soon to be MS5).  It is a
PCBoard based system using ProLogon as a front door, & ProDoor as the
user interface.  I also run WWIV as a door.  I am hooked up to WWIVLink
(@16471).

My question: I am looking for a program that will allow me to convert the
message bases from one type to the other & back again.  PCB to WWIV then
WWIV to PCB.  I understand now that I am looking for a series of UTI programs
that would do such a chore.  I am also interested in being able to convert
my file bases from one type to the other.  Can anybody point me in the 
right direction or an FTP site? (preferably an FTP site that has the programs
I need).

On the same note: any other conversion programs for other types of BBSs would 
be of great interest.  I am trying to set up a BBS that caters to the 
preferences of my users.  If a user want PCB then they get PCB, if they want
WWIV, they get WWIV, etc.  

One of the main interests also is simply being able to use the WWIVLink
software in conjunction with PCBoard.  That could be also a possibility.

Thank you for listening,
