Finding a file to be upgraded and choosing a location for the upgraded file


 

An important step in the upgrade process is to locate the file you wish to upgrade. In this step of the Upgrade Assistant, you'll perform two tasks.

  1. Choose the company file you need to upgrade.


    In the field at the top of the Find File to Upgrade box, enter the location and name of the company file you want to upgrade.
    The company file you select will be displayed below the Find File button.
  1. AccountEdge: Choose the new location and name for the upgraded company file.

    The field at the bottom of the Find File to Upgrade box should automatically display the name and location of the company file after it's been upgraded.


    Warning:  The location you choose for the upgraded company file is VERY important
    If you want to change the displayed name and location, click the Save As button; a window will appear where you can enter a new name for your company file and choose where you want the upgraded company file to be located.

    You should choose a new name for the upgraded company file. Doing this will make it easier for you to find the correct file when you want to open it later using AccountEdge.

    AccountEdge Network Edition:
    Look at the text displayed below the Save As button to see the location of the Upgrade Assistant. The upgraded company file will be placed there. Make note of this location; after the upgrade is complete, you will need to move the upgraded file to a new location.
