Many thanks

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I hope that someone will prove me wrong but, as far as I know, there is no stand-alone progam to convert Quark files to InDesign. (There's a plug-in available for InDesign but it costs over �100 and, I believe, is only available for the Mac).
If the Quark files are from early versions of the program (v1 to v4), InDesign should be able to import them directly. Files from Quark XPress 5 need to be opened and saved to QXP4 files. Files from QXP6 need to opened and saved to QXP5, then re-opened and saved to QXP4.
