Dear Malcom and Vaibhav or anyone else, Can you tell me the detail of creating upgrade project? And where i find the compare tools and how to use it?

RE: [Axapta-Knowledge-Village] Two layer customizing
Hi Joy The upgrade project is the mechanism used when you receive a new version from MBS (its accessed from Tools - Development Tools - Version update), but on closer inspection, its not the tool you want. You actually need to use the "Compare layers" tool which can be found in the same place as the upgrade project tool. Log into the layer that you want all your changes to end up in. Select VAR as your reference layer and USR as the source layer then let it create a development project for you. Next make sure that your user options are set to show changes in all layers (Tools - Options. Development tab, Application object layer = Show all from corrected layers). Now select each item in the project that was created by the compare layers tool. Right click on the item and select Add-ins - Compare. Select VAR and USR as the layers you want to compare and it will show you the differences. The compare tool will give you the option to move code between the layers, but not move fields or tables. If you need to do that then you must export the object from its source layer, delete it from that layer and then import the changes into the correct layer. Note that this changes the table and field Id's that were allocated, so you cannot usethe new application against an existing database.
