Converting Old Files from Mathcad 14 to Mathcad Express Prime 8.0

[JH_10372694]

I am trying to convert old Mathcad files from Mathcad 14 to Mathcad Express Prime 8.0. Right now the convert button is greyed out. I believe it's because we don't have Mathcad 15, however we cannot get access to Mathcad 15. Is there any way to get a converter tool to convert our old files to Mathcad Express Prime or even get a copy of Mathcad 15?

Mathcad Prime 8 allows you to convert Mathcad 14 files without having to have a licence of Mathcad 14 (or 15) installed. However, unless you have the 30-day trial licence, you will need a licence of Mathcad Prime 8 to perform the conversion.

Another thought is that when you installed Mathcad and went through the wizard, did you check the box saying to install the convertor with it?
