MzWiff and msconvert are different software. The former requires Analyst, the latter does not. Doesn't your subject "ms convert" refer to the msconvert tool? If so, what happened with msconvert after you downloaded Skyline? And what Windows OS?

Thanks Matt
I have tried downloading Skyline but i am still not able to convert wiff files. 
 On the wiki page for mzWiff, the tool that does the conversion, it states that
the Analyst library is required.  Have you been able to convert wiff files 
(ABSCIEX) to mzXML without the Analyst software installed on your PC?
Thanks again

    Msconvert versions before 2.1.2403 required Protein Pilot 3 to be installed 
in order to convert WIFFs. Starting with 2403, msconvert can convert WIFFs with
    either Protein Pilot 3 OR Skyline. The former is no longer available at all 
(and Protein Pilot 4 does not work as a substitute), but the latter is freely
    available from:
