Jessica-
v1.0 will convert fine into FileMaker Pro 5. I would go ahead and convert
it into FileMaker Pro 5 format for the following reason.
If you intend to upgrade to ebase v2, you'll need to import your data INTO
v2 from v1 (i.e. your "old" ebase). Having your "old" converted into
FileMaker Pro 5 will make this process easier, particularly if you want to
import Scripts from v1 to v2. Understand that you DO NOT need to have your
existing copy converted to FMP 5 to import your data into v2, but it just
makes a little less work.
Hope this helps!
