V4 and previous custom queries etc

Post by Briand » 23 May 2009 22:18

Hello.  I'm about to upgrade to V4, after a year or so V3 use.  Still only a novice, hence this question:
When I upgrade, can I assume that the custom queries and text schemes that I've downloaded and imported will still be available, as well as the one query I managed to set up on my own from within the program?

Many thanks.

As with diagram customisations you will need to export and re-import I'm afraid

All queries and custom schemes are migrated (this is different to the Beta).

How ever, any changes you made to Standard Reports, and Text Schemes, and diagram layouts should be saved as Custom names prior to upgrading.

Thanks for the observations. I've downloaded V4 and everything went well. As a former 'Generations' user I really welcome the new focus window and layout.

As you indicated, Jane, the only thing I lost were some minor changes to the text of the diagrams e.g. where I had made the fonts bold.
