Transferring a show from Express to ION

Hello!

My name is Meghan and I am currently working on a Nutcracker that is on a small tour. One of the theatres we are going to recently upgraded from an Express 125 to an ION. The whole show is already cued from that Express board, but of course I can't transfer it to the ION.

Is there a way to "crack the code" and make the Express file .asc (I think that's the letters, I don't have the manual infront of me). I work at a rental house and have acess to many light boards. I made a small show on an Express then loaded it into an Expression 2x, then saved that show to a clean disk to see if the file name would change, but it is still .shw

Is there anything else I can do to save my Lighting Designer from recueing his whole show? Can I change files in the off-line editor somehow?

Thank you so much!
