I know this is going to sound like pie in the sky but.  I had the same task.
I found a program that converted everything on the web.  However, the program
was very expensive over $3000.00 US.  The author provided a test demo that
would convert 2 or 3 SP's.  It did look very good.  The author is more
interested in getting large companies to make purchases.  Not that is a bad
thing only that he was not to responsive to a non-profit request.  Keep
looking because the name escapes me and also the link.
