I would expect modifications to the roles to cause issues until those were synced for the DA and the form on both servers.
Unfortunately, I get import error messages related to role stripping when attempting to use Admin to Import forms that are part of a DA, even though the form is already on the Destination server with the same roles as the Source server. Do you get those errors, too, and ignore them? If not, I'm glad it's working for you, but it isn't for me. :( Rick P.S. If we had an ARSList award for the worst Remedy application, Migrator would get my vote. In fact, I would name the award after it. Yes, there have been other poor efforts, but at least those have been improved or retired. On 9/25/07, L. J. Head <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > ** That's what I have been able to do in the past yes.
