Hi Matt,

Specifying MGF didn't work with msconvert.

msconvert my_fullscan.wiff --mgf

The command above generated one output file per sample, but the files
were all empty. There was no error displayed when the process was
completed.

After playing around with output format options, I'm happy to report
that the --text option (write ProteoWizard internal text format)
produced what I wanted, i.e. mz and intensity data for ALL peaks. (One
of the wiff files produced an error during processing. The error msg
was "Error writing run 10 in survey_fullscan.wiff: An attempt was made
to move the file pointer before the beginning of the file". The output
file contained no data as a result.)

Thanks,

Bob
