Sync between different version bookends data.

Post by tomoyuki kosaka »

I'd like to synchronize database between two different versions.
One is 11.1.7 on macosx 10.5 ppc , the other is 11.2.3 on macosx 10.6.8 intel

I made database on 11.2.3 and back-uped in dropbox and synced the two databases.
Then, I made new database on 11.1.7 and synchronized it on ppc mac to the database on dropbox folder for to copy these references.
The database can find the reference data on the database and dialogue shows the data.
However, when push to perform, "error: " dialog came.
I trid several times, but results were always same.

So I'd like to know how to synchronize between two different versions bookends database.
Is there any good solution or procedure ?

Because of differences in the internal database structure, you can't sync 11.1.7 with 11.2.x. You can, however, export references from one and import then into the other. Export as "Bookends" from 11.1.7 -> 11.2.x. Export as "Bookends 10-11.1" to go from 11.2.x -> 11.1.7.
