Migrating a project from FR5 to FR6

Installing FR6 has uninstalled FR5. Is there any steps I need to do to upgrade projects and reports to use the FR6?

    G'day Gordon,

    From memory there are a couple of deprecated Properties on some FastReport Objects. I can't recall which at the moment, but I do remember getting error messages when the Projects were opened first time. Clicking "ignore" got us to the stage where we could rebuild the Apps, and after a "save" all was good from there on.

    AFAIK the FR3 files are fully compatible, so there is no conversion step.

    But! We also did a full backup beforehand, just-in-case!

    I'll dig out the info and update when I can.

    Cheers, Paul
