Hello Hiroshi and Biswapriya,

Thank you for your comments and contributions in the field. I tried your suggestions and it worked well for converting my NIST 08 MS/MS library into MSP using LIB2NIST. But I am really interested in converting the main library which  contains the EI GC-MS data. Unfortunately, I did not find any file for the mainlib to be converted. Also, I tried to export a selected spectrum from the ms search as Biswapriya suggested but it did not contain the retention index data and I think this approach can not be implemented for the whole library (batch export). Any ideas or tips to integrate the NIST GC-MS library (compiled EI-spectra with their retention indices)  with MS-DIAL.
Thanks a lot for your help.
