Default Converter to Allow Use of Minolta Manual Focus Lenses With Autofocus Cameras?

Using Google I tracked down this message I left some months ago. A company
answered me directly saying they did sell them. I has a system crash and
lost all e-mail. I had to completely reload windows. Hoping you see this
message again.

I was just wondering. Did/does anyone make a converter of some kind
to allow the use of Minolta Manual lenses on Minolta Autofocus Cameras?
(Yes I know it would be in manual mode only).
I know I've seen converters advertised on Ebay to allow the use of one
kind of manual focus lens on other brands of cameras (don't remember which
one).
Just wondering if were possible to take that to a different level.
I have both a Minolta XG-7 and X-700 with a bunch of lenses.
If there were a converter to let me use them with their
Autofocus cameras I might make a gradual crossover.
