File Convert 1

[killbox]

I have a customer with a Magix 2.2. Their processor is on the outs. So I have a release 3.0 on the shelf and I'm going to put that in tomorrow morning.

I'm kind of confused on the file convert to get their back up on the 3.0. I have backed up the 2.2 to the my desktop. I have WINSPM 8. I went to convert, and then selected 3.0 in the drop down. After that, I'm assuming that I put in the new 3.0 and do a restore from file??

I tried to do this once in the past, and it didn't work?

THanks,

Once you have the backup file on your computer, use the "convert" option to bring it up to R 3.0 then restore the converted file. It will take about 10 minutes, and the system will be unusable during that time.

Don, pepperz, thanks a lot for the re-assurance. What would be a reason why the new processor would restore? What's the lowest version WINSPM to do this with? I have 8.0. Can you do with SPM 7.0?

Thanks,
