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.
    To choose your company file, click the Find File button; the Select Company File to Upgrade window will appear. This window is a standard "find file" dialog box; browse through the window to find the current name and location of the company file you want to upgrade. (You can't find your company file)
    The company file you select will be displayed below the Find File button.
  1. Premier Accounting: 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 name and location you choose for the upgraded company file are 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 Premier Accounting.Related topics
