I would like to import .fsa files from our AB Genetic Analyzer to the Systat program, PeakFit, for peak area analysis. PeakFit requires the following file types:

ASCII[pm,dat,txt]
Lotus 123[wk?]
Excel[xls]
Quattro Pro[wb?wq?]
SigmaPlot[sp?jnb?]
dBASE[dbf]
DIF[dif]
SPSS Windows[sav]
Systat Windows[sys]
AIA Chrom [cdf]

How do I convert the .fsa files to one of these?

FASTA files, such as .fsa, are essentially just text files. They contain only nucleotide or amino acid data.

You can't import one into a spectrogram program such as Systat, because it contains a visual component, i.e. the intensity of the nucleotide signal.
