How to import OMF files to Protools?

Can anyone help me?
I'm trying to open a session that has a OMF type of document in pro tools , but Protools tells me that it need a digitranslator 2.0 (??) Ive never heard of that, Last time I opened an OMF file was in PT 5.7, I think and It didnt such a thing.
I seached digi web site and the this "option" cost like 500$
I'm running Mac OS 10.4 with Accel PT 7.1 TDM
Well, I hope someone outthere can help with alternatives
Thank you in advance

Hi Borism,

Unfortunely i think you need digitranslator to open OMF files for P.tools . Your other choice might be to open them up in another programme like Logic if you have it , prepare and consolidate the tracks starting at 0 there and just simply import them into P.tools , maybe some other programmes you have available can import OMF without an additional app....hope this saves you $500

If you're running a PC, you can get EDL-Convert for $250,-. It will convert a myriad of file formats to and from PT's in Version 5 session format.
