[mkapde@connectis.ca]

Hi,

Right now i am on version 7.5.4 and would like to go for the 8.0

I want to install 8.0 on new machine and then want to resote database function in order to move 7.5.4 sales logix database in version 8.0 new machine.

I rember that to link the database with saleslogix there is sql command. which i forget and also want to make sure 7.5.4 database will work with 8.0 or not.

The reason for new installation is operating system. I am on windows 2003 and want to move on windows 2008 server.

Any help is appreciated.

Just follow the upgrade instructions.. You have to upgrade your db to work with 8.x.. and why 8.0??? why not 8.1?

A - The ftp site no longer exists - it has been gone for many months.

B - You need completely new licenses for 8.1 - your old ones will not work

C - You need to contact your BP or Saleslogix to get new licenses.

D -  You need to have a legimate login to the NEW Saleslogix (customer - if customer or partner if partner) portal - that is something you have to go thru Saleslogix (or your BP) to get.

E - The download is on the new partner (or customer) portal.
