Btr to SQL conversion

[mac555]

We are running Progression Pervasive 775 and ready to move to MS SQL. We are hitting some errors during the conversion. The Btr2SQL doc. is a little inconsistent and I would like to get some clarification from some of you who have done this.
1) The conversion has to be run from a workstation with both Progression Pervasive and Progression MS SQL clients installed ?
2) The Btr to SQL from the Progression (MS) SQL and not from Progression Pervasive ? (The Btr2SQL doc is not consistent on this)
3) I am getting "missing or different version" error for file macsysp.dll during the first conversion step. The file is in the macola shared folder and I made sure I registered it. Also no problem with this file when I opened visual menu builder in Progression Pervasive client but get the same error in Progression MS SQL client.

I have a MS SQL server running in parallel with the Pervasive SQL server and running the conversion from a XP workstation.

I would appreciate any tips. Thank you.
