You can either choose to migrate all the information for all projects or for a specific table
document, user, and project.
Migrating information for all projects
Using the Migrate All option means you can complete the upgrade for all users and projects
at once. It also includes an option to delete the variable edits from DPM once the migration
completes successfully. Deleting variable edits is recommended as, once all projects have been
upgraded, they are no longer of any use, and are simply taking up space.

The migration tool checks for any users who have variable edits in DPM, and displays a list of the
users. You can either choose to migrate all users, or press Cancel to return to the window and
select individual users to migrate.
If you choose to migrate all users, the results of the migration process are recorded in a log at
the bottom of the window. You can copy the information from this log and save it to a file as a
record of the upgrade process.
Once the upgrade has run successfully for all users and projects, the upgrade tool sets the
Note:
VariableEditsMigratedToMTD property on the Survey Tabulation application in DPM to true, to
indicate that all projects have been upgraded.
Migrating information for a specific table document, user, or project

and table document files individually. You may prefer to use these options rather than the Migrate
All option if you want to perform the upgrade in stages.
The option to delete edits from DPM is not available when you use the
options. This is because the edits may be required by other table documents that have not yet
been upgraded. When you have migrated the required users and projects, you may want to use
the Migrate All option to check that nothing has been missed, and to delete the variable edits
from DPM.
