If you are upgrading from v9 you will need to take the following steps:
1.Install WireCAD v10
2.Setup your global databases (file based or SQL Server)
3.Click Database > Sync Equipment Libraries
4.Click the ellipsis (...) and enter the path to the v10 WireCADGlobalEquipment.vdb3 file or set the SQL Server Host info.
5.Click the Import radio button.
6.Click [Sync] to sync the two databases.
7.Next convert any projects that you want to work with in v10
8.Click Application Menu > Open Project and browse to your v10 <YOURPROJECTNAME>.wc6plf file. WireCAD will open and convert the project. When WireCAD converts projects no drawings are touched. The database schema is modified.
Note: this may take some time

WireCAD can no longer upgrade a v5 or earlier project. Key data access components needed to open and import data from the Microsoft Access databases are no longer available for modern 64bit operating systems. If you need to bring a v5 or earlier project forward we recommend using a 32bit XP virtual machine with WireCAD v6 installed. Convert the project to v6. Then open it in v10 once converted. We offer this service if you get in trouble. Call us. |
