Export Final Cut Express Timeline to Final Cut Pro X

I have Final Cut Express 4 .FCP documents that I want to transfer using the app SendtoX and XML to Final Cut Pro X.

A friend was able to transfer the .FCP documents but without included TimeLine that was in Final Cut Express 4.

How to transfer the TimeLine from each individual Final Cut Express 4 .FCP document to Final Cut Express?

I received 3 FCE files. I was able to successfully convert them to current FCP XML files. Each one seems to contain a Project/timeline when imported into FCP 10.6.5. No errors encountered in the conversion process (FCE -> FCP7 -> FCP7 XML -> 7toX/SendToX -> FCP 10.6.5 compatible XML). If you need more converted, please upload them (and provide any instructions, contact info, etc.). Thanks.
