>>I want to pass data from my users in a dictionary in Clarion 3 >>for dos (Format Clarion) to a new dictionary in Clarion 4 for >>Windows (Format Topspeed). >> >>I want to do it in a straghtforward manner without writting >>90 routines to pass each file >> Solution --> C5 Syncrhonizer. Shipping now. They can tag the files they want, it does backups, and a whole lot more. Steps to make it work..... 1. Import your files one by one into a blank dct 2. Run synchronizer from Clarion Data table DCT to Topspeed Data Table DCT 3. Select GENERATE CONVERSION CODE ONLY (this is not the default and I think it should be) 3. Get a cup of coffee 4. Tweak the matching 5. Click ok 6. Open Convert.prj (it doesn't give you a choice so make sure you change the names of any Convert.clw that you want to keep) 7. Edit Files that end in numbers to tweak the assignments. 8. Compile the program 9. Test it. 10. Ship it 11. Thank Alexey for his work on this.
