Back up 1​.4​.x tour definitions

If you are currently using PI Manual Logger 1.4.x and want to upgrade to the newest version, be sure to back up your existing 1.4.x tour definition database first. The 1.4.x tour definition database is a Microsoft Access 97 database file, which by default is named pimls135.mdb.

1. To check the location of your current PI Manual Logger 1.4.x database, start PI Manual Logger 1.4.x and click PIML > Administration > Attach to another PIML Data file.

2. After you know the location of your database file, save the database file to a back-up storage location, such as a separate backup server, a network share, or a different folder on your PC.

3. You can upgrade the tour definition backups later to the new version and the new data store using the PIML Tour Migration Tools application.

   Note: Not all information in tour definitions is migrated into the new database format. For details, see What is not migrated.
