SECAM to NTSC or PAL?

[Fax]

Anyone have any idea if video tapes in the French SECAM format can be converted to the North American NTSC (or British PAL, my DVD will play that) format?  I found a video tape I'd like to convert to something I can actually watch (either in VHS tape or DVD) but I'm not even sure if it can be done.  Not terribly keen on the idea of spending over $1000 on a multi format VHS player for one tape.

Bring it with you, when you come to Sebring - I've got a multi-lingual VCR - and Steve Harper has the technology to do just about anything with your tape.
