						<ul class="after-head">
							<li>
								Yes.
								Back up the <strong>ConnectServer</strong>
							folder.
							<li>
								Back up all the SQL Server databases as well.
							</li>
						</ul>
						<p class="faqtop"><A href="#faq"><img src="top.gif" border="0" alt="Top"></A></p>
						<a name="else"></a>
						<p class="head">Is there anything else I should do before I upgrade?
						</p>
						<p class="after-head">Yes. Log off all users from the 
						Vizor system.
						</p>
						<p>Use the <strong>Logons Editor</strong> in the Vizor 
						Web Admin to check that all 
							users are logged off. During the upgrade, users will not be allowed to log on.</p>
						<p class="faqtop"><A href="#faq"><img src="top.gif" border="0" alt="Top"></A></p>
						<a name="views"></a>
						<p class="head">What happens to my system when I upgrade?
						</p>
						<p class="after-head">The Upgrade program preserves your 
						customizations. If you created custom fields, they are 
						preserved, but you may need to export them to the Web 
						views where you added them in the previous pervios. 
							After the upgrade is finished, the Web views must be regenerated. If the Web 
							views are not customized, the Upgrade program will regenerate the Web views for 
							you.</p>
						<p class="faqtop"><A href="#faq"><img src="top.gif" border="0" alt="Top"></A></p>
						<a name="customizations"></a>
						<p class="head">What happens to my customizations?</p>
						<p>
							If all your changes were made using the Vector 
							Editors, all the customizations are preserved.</p>
						<p>
							Otherwise, customizations may have to be manually reapplied, in particular 
							the ones whose files are in the <strong>CUSTOMIZEDFILES</strong> folder.
						</p>
						<h3>Customized Files Folder</h3>
						<p>
							The Upgrade program backs up your existing customizations by renaming the <strong>CUSTOMIZEDFILES</strong>
							folder. You'll need to review and possibly update your customizations to work 
							with the new release. Then you'll have to copy your updated customizations to 
							the new <strong>CUSTOMIZEDFILES</strong> folder before you regenerate your Web 
							views. In general, we recommend you test all your customizations with the new 
							version of Vector Vizor.</p>
						<p>
							If you have customized the file CustomCode.bas, you need to apply your changes 
							to the new version of this file. The new structure of the CustomCode.bas file 
							makes it much easier to add, identify and maintain custom code in future 
							upgrades.
							<br />The original functions of Vector Vizor are now located in the file MqCustomCode.bas, which must not be modified.
							You may refer to this file when applying your changes to CustomCode.bas.
							<br>
							Start with a copy of the original CustomCode.bas v8 (located by 
							default&nbsp;in C:\Program Files\Vector\ConnectServer\CensusWeb\Templates\View\HTML\) 
							and place it in the proper folder inside the <strong>CUSTOMIZEDFILES</strong> folder. 
							Make the changes to this file.
							
							<br>
							Refer to the Help for more information on the <strong>CUSTOMIZEDFILES</strong> 
							folder and contact Technical Support if you need any assistance.
						</p>
						<h3>Custom Macro Functions</h3>
						<p>
							If you created any custom macro for e-mail notifications or queries, you added 
							new functions to the Macro70.bas file. These functions must be moved to the 
							CustomMacro.bas file, located in the project folder with the Macro70.bas file 
							(for example, C:\Program Files\Vector\ConnectServer\ProjectName\).
						</p>
						<p class="faqtop"><A href="#faq"><img src="top.gif" border="0" alt="Top"></A></p>
						<a name="regenerate"></a>
						<p class="head">Do I have to regenerate my Web views?</p>
						<p class="after-head">Yes. After you upgrade, users cannot log on until you 
							regenerate your Web views. If you haven't customized the Web views, you can 
							have the Upgrade program regenerate your Web views for you. Otherwise, you'll 
							have to update your customizations before you regenerate the Web views.</p>

							<h2>Other things to consider</h2>
							<h3>Grant permissions to use the new features</h3>
							The new features in Vector Vizor can be enabled or disabled per user 
							group.
							<p>By default, the upgrade will enable all the new features for members of the 
								Admins group. You can enable or disable any of these 
								features for specific groups in the Groups Editor (Security Tab, Web Admin).</p>
