Appreciate Erwan for quick reply.

Couple of queries,1. Regarding the saving the old applications, is there any specific settings/configurations that need to be saved? Or is it a regular saving of project?2. Regarding importing the old project, again any special steps to be carried out or it is just as simple as in current version?3. Regarding the HighTec C license, will the old license file still work or is it required to acquire new license?Look forward for quick reply before proceeding to new installation. Thanks.Mike.
