Author vdbase 5.5 to plus

We recently converted from dbase dos 5.0 to Visual dBase 5.5, end result - our application was running fine. And since we are no longer able to add 5.5 licenses, we converted to dBase plus. With a supplied program, I converted the query that ran our appli
cation in 5.5 to a datamodule in Plus but am not able to get the application running. I 'datalinked' my entryfields to their appropriate tables...some data saves, others do not. There are about 4 tables that captures data from our application.

I have gone through some of the online tutorials...that seemed to help to a point.

Is there a conversion tool available to better convert from 5.5 to plus? Any insight to the conversion process?

Thanks for any assistance.
Joyce

It sounds as if you are doing a rowset.save() for one rowset (I.e. the rowset
for the query for one table), probably with a form.rowset.save(), and it is the
data for the other three tables that is not being saved.

Can you check this ?

If so you simply need to add a rowset.save() for the other three query rowsets
in your save routine.

Hope this helps.
