Migratre 2.3.3 to 2.2.9
Thanks Phil for your answer. Is it possible to migrate a 2.3.3 database to 2.2.9? 2009/9/4 Phil Longstaff plongst...@rogers.com Hi, 2.3.X are an *unstable* series of releases leading to a stable release in a few months. If you want to help with testing, feel free to use 2.3.X. If you want a stable version for your personal expenses, you should remove 2.3.X and install 2.2.9. Version 2.3.4 contains a fix for the currency problem. It also contains large changes to the database table structure, and does not automatically convert from previous versions, so if you want to continue to use 2.3.X, you will need to delete your db and recreate it. I had hoped that 2.3.4 would have the final database structure changes, but 2.3.6 is going to have another change as well.

Depends which database format you use. If you're using XML then it should work. If you're using one of the other DB formats then no. -derek Quoting Gabriel Ferrise gferr...@gmail.com: Thanks Phil for your answer.

Re: Migratre 2.3.3 to 2.2.9
Open 2.3.3. Select File - Save As. In the drop down box, select XML, then enter a file name. That should give you a file you can open with 2.2.9. Note that the currency problem may follow this procedure, so in 2.2.9, re-assign the currencies.

Could always open your DB and save it as an xml to get it into the right format to migrate.
