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 been 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

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 but an extension of .xml.
