Determine How to Migrate Custom Settings
Migrating custom settings from a previous release can help you get started
with the latest release much sooner.
The Migrate Custom Settings dialog box simplifies the process of migrating
custom settings and files from a previous release. For information on the
Migrate Custom Settings dialog box, see
Migrate Custom Settings on page 358.
For more control over which custom settings, files, or parts of files are migrated,
see the following:
■ Changes to the User Interface. The Migrate Custom Settings dialog box
migrates the MNU, MNS, CUI or CUIx files associated with the user profiles
from the previous release. All custom user interface elements are migrated
forward and merged with those in the shipping files as needed.
NOTE Only menu customization files that are part of a user profile or listed as
a partial customization file in a CUI or CUIx file are migrated with the Migrate
Custom settings dialog box. Any other menu or customization file is not
migrated automatically.
If you want to control which user interface elements are migrated to the
new release, you can use the Transfer tab of the Customize User Interface
(CUI) Editor. For information on transferring user interface elements with
the CUI Editor, see
Transfer and Migrate Customization on page 315.
■ Custom Files. The Migrate Custom Settings dialog box can merge changes
that you made to the shipping linetype (LIN), hatch pattern (PAT), program
