Project Transfer not working
« on: January 23, 2014, 08:57:20 am »
I'm running version 10, and I'm attempting to transfer from my SQL Server database to an .EAP file.  I open Project Transfer, click on "DBMS to .EAP", click on the elipsis next to Source Project and put in the information on my database (using OLE provider for SQL Server).  I test the connection, everything is OK.  I click the elipsis next to Target Project and fill in a new file name.  When I click "Transfer" I get an error message saying it can't find the target file.  Please advise.

It sounds as if you might be expecting the transfer process to create the .eap file.  It didn't say so explicitly in the Help (but it does now) but the .eap file must be an existing file. The data structures in the source must have data tables in the target to transfer data into.
