GUEST,meneermalik convert ABC to Finale???help (41) convert ABC to Finale???help 17 Nov 09

Hi everyone. I need help. I have this fairly large book in ABC format that I need to convert to Finale for a publisher. I've been putting this off for some time but time is running out. I remember (or thought I did) Finale being able to read ABC but that doesnt seem to be the case now. I have Finale 2009. What seems to work so far is opening a single abc tune with Harmony Assistant, exporting it as a MusicXML file and then importing that in Finale. Needless to say, it's a bit time consuming. Is there any software out there that will convert ABC straight to a Finale? And is there any software that allows you to process/convert an abc file that has many tunes in it as oppose to working one tune at a time?

Thanks for any help.
