I am in the process of developing all of my megatree (new for this year WOOHOO) RGB effects in XL/NC and converting all of the XSEQ files into HSLNC files.  When I click on "choose files" under the "convert" tab, the XSEQ file in the drop down appear to the original time/date stamps on them even if I just tweaked on the sequence file and saved it.  For example, my Linus & Lucy sequence has the 9/13/14 date stamp on it (which I think is the day I first saved the XSEQ file...) even though it is 9/17/14 and I just tweaked on it in NC then saved it.  Is this just the way the XSEQ files "looks" when viewed in the convert panel and I just shouldn't worry about it?  By the way, I just saved the converted hslnc file, dropped it into HLS, and it did just what I wanted.  Thanks in advance!!

The popup for selecting files can be modified to show Date Created and Date Modified.  Maybe yours is showing the date created which will not change.  The date modified is changed each time you save the file.  See if that is your problem.

I had to change that, too. A right click on the top bar should get you to the column headers you want.
