I used to have a utility that worked but it will not run on my >Pentium-III. The SAN toolkit works fine. You can't have funny characters (common in European and Scandinavian names) in the headers, though. I have a version for NT: ftp://38.168.214.175/pub/SAN.ZIP EPD2DIAG works fine for small sets. I typically run PGN files through a filter to remove funny characters (below 32 except whitespace, above 127...) and then feed it to SAN. Usually, I will have to hand-edit a couple of the games in a large collection to get it to work. Once in a great while, the san toolkit will refuse to process a game, and then I just give it to EPD2DIAG. An even better way (but it is not free) is to use BOOKUP. BOOKUP can read in PGN files and spit out EPD. It has a lot of neat features for that.
