Does anyone know if it's possible to convert an 8.3 database to 10.1c? I know we could convert from 8.3 to 9 and then from 9 to 10.1c, but this would require another version of progress to be installed on our servers.

So is there away to convert directly to 10.1c from 8.3 without the extra step and progress version?
 
From your progress install in $DLC/bin/91dbutils you find conv89 to convert your database to a version 9.1 database.

With proutil you can convert your newly created V9.1 database to 10.1.

The read me files in the 91dbutils dir tell you how you can do this exactly.

HTH,

casper.
 
Why not dump the data from version 8 and then load them into 10?

There has been so many changes from 8 to 10 that I would recommend doint this. Ex type II area which requires a dump/reload (or a table move)
