This is the batch file I use to convert REP files into QWK files that VADV can
import:

--- BEGIN ---
@echo off

if "%1" == "" goto Exit

SET DSZLOG=D:\VA\DSZ1.LOG

c:
cd\files\usr\qwk\81-%1\in

if not exist ASPNET.REP goto Exit

PKUNZIP.EXE -o ASPNET.REP *.*
if exist aspnet.msg copy aspnet.msg MESSAGES.DAT > nul.
PKZIP.EXE -m NEWPKT.QWK MESSAGES.DAT

d:
cd\va

VQWK.EXE 0 /IMPORT=c:\files\usr\qwk\81-%1\in\NEWPKT.QWK,%1 NETWORKID=81
del /q c:\files\usr\qwk\81-%1\in\*.* > nul.

:Exit
d:
cd\va

SET DSZLOG=
--- END ---

It basically just extracts the MSG file and renames it to MESSAGES.DAT then
zips it back up into a QWK file.
