Could anyone convert one Sibelius 6 file to 5 (or to xml)?

Many thanks,

Yes. Anyone with Sibelius 6 can save it (Export it in Sib-speak) as anything back to and including Sibelius 2. I can also open anything back to Sibelius 2. It is only opening a later version file in an earlier version that cannot be done.

Students in my arranging class have anything from Sibelius 4 to 6, depending on when they entered school, and we have no problem sharing files.

I don't know about XML because I've never tried to use it, but I believe that it's been better implemented in Finale because it was needed in order to deal with cross-version files.
