Convert VBA save to no$gba

no$gba runs MUCH better on my computer and i was wondering if there was a way to convert my old vba game save to no$gba to avoid having to start over.
Thanks for anything

You just have to copy/move the save file from vba to no$gba's battery folder.

OK.
VBA save -> No$GBA - can.
No$GBA -> VBA - cannot.must be convert first.
Next time search first.

Using vba, import the save file that you downloaded then save the game. After which, move/copy the save over to no$gba's battery folder.

Right..In the file,select import the saves.Shouldn't get any problem.

For VBA,you can simply export the save that you downloaded.

how did that get here

use PMs or the software discussion board fr tis kind of stuff.

.xps is Microsoft’s new document format. Its an alternative to Adobe's .pdf format.
use office2007
go here(http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/xps/default.mspx) for more info

open the No$gba.INI file with notepad

We are still talking about save files downloaded from Gamefaqs, right?
Use this website:
=> Savegame Converter

This has been asked before a couple of times...
Try searching the forum before posting...

I pronounce you the deity of obvious answers.

I almost didnt believe you since I found this little program someone wrote specifically for this problem thinking surely they wouldve known this and never even bother.

I necroed this post in the name of the GOD of OBVIOUSNESS, bow down worms!
