Anyone familiar with Agtek esw files?

[bbertram]

I was wondering if anyone out there is familiar with these files, and may know of an easy way to convert them into something that Civil3D can handle (csv)? These files are from another consultants gps readings they have took on a site that we are both working on. The guy who sent them to me does not know how to convert them, and since he is providing them to us as a professional courtesy we are stuck with whatever he can provide.

Any software that acts as a converter would be great.

I'm sure it's too much to ask for, but If anyone out there has the Agtek software required to open these and is dying to do a favor for an unknown stranger I would not be too proud to accept it...

Thanks for any suggestions,
Brett

If anyone does decide to be a friend to a stranger please let me know and I can email you the files directly. For some reason I was having problems attaching the zip file.

Hi bbertram,

Open the file in Wordpad and if you can read it, clipboard out enough
lines to show the file structure. Post them here.

If you can't read it, then you will be totally reliant on finding
someone with the source software.

Laurie,

I can open the files in Word, Notepad, Excel, Wordpad...

Unfortunately the results are all the same:
"qT£E-ÊŠÅ @xD" is a representative sample of the text.

Hi Brett,

If that's the case you are stuck with finding someone with the
appropriate software. No-one else has any hope of deciphering propriety
binary files at an economic price.
