Just to be clear - the file will not OPEN - ever. You must IMPORT it
(File menu).

Actually I'm trying to get a file from the notation program Score
to open.
Someone sent my editor a Score to Encore format.
Using Finale 2005, on the file named
Heinichen_Dres_N1_Sinfonia_in_D_bass_a.enc
I get "invalid file format" error message :-(
Any ideas what's wrong?
Thanks!

In Finale 2010 they removed the ability to import Encore files

much for not removing functionality, eh?) In Fin2009 and previous
it is
still there, under File>Import.
I think MusicXML might be an option too, but I don't know how that
works.
Certainly you need the Encore file to be converted into MusicXML
format;
whether that is something that is done from inside Encore or if it
is a
standalone converter I couldn't say.
Yet another reason to keep old versions installed.
(BTW, when you say a "Score file" with the proper noun
capitialised, it
makes us think for a minute that it is a file from the program
Score, which
is a completely different animal. But only for a minute!)

Good day:
A friend sent me a Score file in Encore format with the idea I
can open
this
in Finale. It apparently doesn't work.
Any suggestions? Do I need specific plug-ins?
Thanks kindly,
