The Conversion Tool

A few words before you start.

The conversion from Omnis 7.x to Studio 2.x may not be 100% successful.

It will be necessary for you to carry out some extensive testing and possibly the handcrafting of some code, to ensure that your libraries are converted successfully. We have tested the conversion tool and know that there are some limitations.

Two small requests:

1.  Please ensure that you have a secure backup of any libraries prior to using the conversion tool.

2.  Should you have any support issues / questions, would you please address them to . As opposed to your normal channels.

PLEASE READ THIS DISCLAIMER:

OMNIS Software disclaims any responsibility for or liability related to Software obtained through our website www.omnis.net. Specifically, OMNIS Software disclaims any responsibility for or liability related to use of the conversion tools. IN ALL CASES, YOU SHOULD MAKE SECURE BACKUP COPIES OF ALL LIBRARIES BEFORE CONVERSION. IN NO EVENT WILL OMNIS SOFTWARE BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES HOWEVER THEY MAY ARISE AND EVEN IF OMNIS SOFTWARE HAS BEEN PREVIOUSLY ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
