Hi SolarPunk,

The two formats are completely different (according to FM), and therefore it is not backwards compatible. There was a utility at www.fmfile I think a long time ago that would do this, but it was highly recommended by the developer to not rely on it.

The safest way is to export the information as text, and then import that into your new database.
