Importing from Prior Version Files
You can convert and import data from project files and standard database files that were created in previous versions of the software.
Note: Starting in Version 21.0.2, you can import only from Version 9 or later.
Importing to a New Standard Database (File > Open Database)
For all ReliaSoft desktop applications, you can use the File > Open Database method to import data from a project file or standard database that was created in a previous version of the software. This imports the data to a new project in a new standard database.
- Choose File > Open Database.
- Browse for the file and click Open.
- The conversion process will begin immediately.
When the process completes, the original file will remain unchanged and the new standard database will be created in the same folder.
Tip: Once the new database has been created, you can use the Import/Export Projects feature to copy the data into an existing database, if desired.
