This tool allows you to migrate an existing BioAdmin database to your new BioStar system. When migrating a database, any identical information that exists in the BioStar database will be overwritten. For example, if you have added a user to BioStar that previously existed in BioAdmin, the user data will be overwritten with the information from the BioAdmin database. For this reason, you should migrate your old database to BioStar before creating new user accounts. To migrate your information from BioAdmin to BioStar: 1. Locate and run the migration program, BADBConv.exe. The location of this program is Window's Start > All Programs > BioStar 1.8 > Server Service > BADBConv. 2. Click Yes to acknowledge the warning dialogue that appears to remind you that identical information in BioStar will be overwritten. 3. Click Start to begin the migration. When the process is complete, the Convert DB dialog box will show the types of data that have been migrated. 33 Copyright ©2014, Suprema Inc. On the web: www.supremainc.com
