The Manual has a lot longer lead time than the program itself.

Manuals can be helpful so long as you realise they are always out of date and contain some hopes which aren't realised as well as some prototypes of features that are more fully developed in the released program. You'll note that some screen shots are different to the way the screens appear now.

The Help file is always more up to date but that also isn't perfect - especially when the programmers are working hard on the features and bugs rather than the documentation at the moment.

It was the Legacy staff trying this that led to it at least being delayed. The beta testers haven't seen a conversion tool at all.

Hadn't anyone on the Legacy staff tried this before publishing the manual?

Because it is still under development. Some things prove harder in practice than in thought and this, apparently, is one of them.

I want to use the Source Template Conversion Tool. On page 72 of the Legacy User Guide it says:

"The Source Template Conversion Tool is reached from the Master Source List by clicking the Options button and then choosing Source Template Conversion Tool on the submenu."

There is no item for the Source Template Conversion Tool on the submenu.

I am using version 7.0.0.38. Why can't I find the tool?
