Q How long will the conversion take for the Reporting to the MAX?

A The Windows product provides a complete, automatic update path from DOS without data loss or re-entry; however, it is not the same as upgrading to a newer version of our DOS product. In a DOS to Windows upgrade, it takes considerably longer to convert the data, because in a DOS to DOS upgrade only files and fields that have been changed to add a new feature must be converted. This normally consists of a few fields in less than 5% of the files. In a DOS to Windows upgrade on the other hand, every field in every file has to be converted.

Therefore, depending on your file sizes, it can take a long period of time to complete a conversion. We recommend you use a single-user machine to convert your data files. Using a 486/66, it took one hour to convert 130,000 open accounts payable records. The same conversion over a network took four hours.

Back up your data files, close all other applications and allow plenty of time for the conversion. Because files are shared, it is possible to generate errors if more than one person tries to convert the same files. , close all other applications and allow plenty of time for the conversion.
