Yeah... if you didn’t use the Database Backup in the Administrator utility, there really isn’t an easy way to hack the db back over. It’s SQL on the backend, so a DB hacker/programmer could probably do it...

I had to updated an Admin and two Remote UPS Worldship workstations for a client recently. SpeeDee and FedEx were much easier to migrate.

I feel your pain, but there are a few Worldship support folks that DO know what they are doing.

That is how it is “supposed” to work.

The Export puts all the associated files into a proprietary file type. The Import utility will only look for that file.

I just find it amazing that UPS doesn't have a small app that will read the database located in the iDrive backup file and spit it out in the correct form to be able to import it into the new program.

Am I the only one who has had a HD die and needed to import from a backup?

I agree, but Rajesh is not one of them. LOL

There's more than one files that comes over. Some are UPS specific, some customer data, and company data. Probably why they drop it all down to one file.

Sanji, Rajneesh, and Steve are pretty good. At least, better than their software.
