Overview

To ease the pain of upgrades, ODBClink's upgrade process will seamlessly transfer any settings from your old installation and transfer it to the new one. If you have custom solutions or reports, they will be copied across during the upgrade process. Note that you may also need to configure ODBClink for any new features.
