Versions 7.5.103f to 7.6.200.5

[wwwedward]

We converted to 7.6 from 7.5 sql.. Now, I am attempting to restore a back up from our fisical year end. This data was on the old version 7.5 sql.. I need one report from po (recv not invoiced). upon attempting to run I get an error prt.df.user. not found and the printdft.sql msl and then printdft.btr is not open.

Is there a utility to convert this data set to run on new platform. Or is this an unrelated error??

I can view data, run crystal against database and looks okay?? for the first time in my life i really need this report straight from macola..

That sounds like more of a problem with the print default table than the PO or IM tables - is the PRINTDFT.BTR table present? Can you initialize it in the company where you're trying to run the report? Is the company you've restored the data to a functional company i.e. do other reports have the same problem?

Thanks for your reply. I am on sql, that is why I did not understand the btr message. Anyway, I have moved on. Got the information with crystal enough to staisfy our audit..

Thanks

1.) I would guess you restored the sql database and gave it a name like data_99, did you create a directory under your macola root with the same name ?

2.) Initialize the printer default file from system manager (in your restored company).

3.) check your btrfiles.cfg should say
"NOFILES" on top of the list.
