Converting a preferences file from Progress Version 9 to OpenEdge

The format for the preferences file saved by the Open Client Toolkit in Progress Version 9 has converted to XML in OpenEdge. You can convert a Version 9 preferences file using the PrefConvert command line utility.
To run PrefConvert, enter the following command at the Windows or UNIX command prompt:
bprefconvert Version9-preferences-filename
Where:
Version9-preferences-filename
The name and path of the Version 9 preferences file.
The new preferences file is saved to the same location as Version9-preferences-filename, with the same root name, and the .xml extension.
