I am trying to find a Macintosh spreadsheet program which can load "DIF" files and reconvert to "SYLK" files. I have a NEC "Starlet Laptop" computer which uses a version of "Calc to Go" spreadsheet. This program creates its own unique format files which can only be read by itself. However it can also store the files as "DIF" files which can be loaded into a Lotus 1-2-3 or similar spreadsheet program. My problem is that the Mac spreadsheet programs such as Jazz, Excell, Crunch and Multiplan cannot interpret and load a "DIF" style of file. Therefore I cannot exchange spreadsheet info and templates from my NEC "Starlet Laptop" computer with Excell on my Macintosh. If anyone knows of any programs which can load both (SYLK or WKS) and DIF files or convert one to the other, I would deeply appreciate it if you would let me know!! Thanks for your help.

It's not a spreadsheet program, but it ought to do the trick. It's MacLinkPlus, by DataViz. A pretty decent program, if a little lacking on user-interface. List price is somewhere around $130 or so.
