Lynn, there are two *free* programs that will change the format of designs if you need to, and they're very easy to use. Hugs and a flower sweetie. http://www.wilcom.com.au/PRODUCTS... ...

Try the DST to see if it will work. I can use it with my Viking.
Go to www.embroideryfriend.com they have a free software to change pes to other formats. Don't know if it will work to chnge dst to pes or not
