Upgrade from Version 10 to 11

If you have already been using version 10 with your own data for your shooters, then you will not want to reenter that information.

If you are using versions before 10, contact me for information on upgrading.

To help you, I have written a routine that will bring your existing matches over to the new database.

This program has been tested using Microsoft Access 97.  If you are using 2000 and have any problems, please let me know.


If you have been using the export features of the Portable option, delete the Possexx.xls files on the C root Drive first.

Make a backup copy of your database before starting

If you have converted your current database to Access 2000, 2002, XP etc.  when you open version 11, convert it also.

Step 1:  Move your existing database on your hard drive to the root of the C: drive or to a simple directory name like c:\cowboy.  This will make it easier later.

	My examples will assume that your current database is C:\COWBOY\ROUNDUP10.MDB


Step 2: Download and Unzip the new database ROUNDUP11.MDB  ( The tutorial version will also work.)

Step 3: Start ROUNDUP11.MDB

Step 4: Click on the “About” button

Step 5: Click on the “Import Tables” button

Step 6: Type in the FULL location of your version 10 database in the blank

Example : C:\COWBOY\ROUNDUP10.MDB

Step 7: Click on the “Import Your Old Tables” button

Step 8: You will receive a message that says “complete”.  If you get an error, please check the name and location of the version 9 database.

Close the open windows.

You will not need your old version  any more, you may delete it but I suggest you keep it as a backup.
