Thank you everyone for their respective inputs.  After a 2 hr 15 min hold with Lacerte customer service, we were able to (re)convert the data and migrate it this time to 2018 Lacerte software which will now allow us to generate the 2019 organizers.  Although the wait was long, support was knowledgeable and made it worth the wait. 

Thank you again to everyone and have a great season!
