Sample Command Line Migration Scenarios

Quick Fields 6/7 sessions must be converted to the Quick Fields 9 format. The conversion process will retain virtually all of a session's settings. There are different ways to migrate sessions, one of which is using Microsoft Windows' command line.

The following scenarios and commands illustrate different ways to control the Quick Fields Migration Utility from the command line.

• Tim uses the following command to convert all .qfs files in his My Documents folder: "C:\Program Files\Laserfiche\Quick Fields 9\QFMigrator.exe" "C:\ Documents and Settings\Tim\My Documents".
• Mark uses the following command to convert all .qfs files on his desktop, including those found in subfolders: "C:\Program Files\Laserfiche\Quick Fields 9\QFMigrator.exe" "C:\ Documents and Settings\Mark\Desktop" -r.
• Sarah uses the following command to convert all .qfs files in her My Documents folder. She uses the -d parameter to create the new files on the root of her C drive: "C:\Program Files\Laserfiche\Quick Fields 9\QFMigrator.exe" "C:\ Documents and Settings\Sarah\My Documents" -d "C:".
• Jane uses the following command to convert all .qfs files on her desktop. She uses the -o parameter to specify an output file name (ConvertedSession.qfs) and -y to ensure output is not printed to the console. "C:\Program Files\Laserfiche\Quick Fields 9\QFMigrator.exe" "C:\ Documents and Settings\Jane\Desktop" -o "ConvertedSession.qfs" -y.
