We already have VB5 updated from VB4. We have both VB4 and VB5 running and the VB4 is live while we work on the VB5. There are issues with the VB5 which we are unable to figure out. We are going to hire a freelancer to fix the issues, but once the issues are fixed, how do we get the most recent data from our VB4 imported into the VB5 installation?

If we start over again with the VB5 upgrade, then these issues will arise again im sure.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

There are pretty much only 2 ways: either manually move over the data in the tables which a tremendous amount of work or execute the upgrade script again from vB 4 to 5.

If the freelancer can write down what he did to fix the issues in vB 5 then you might be able to do it yourself if you decide to upgrade the vB 4 version again.
