Project Converter Operation Procedure

How to operate Project Converter

1. Click the [Start] button and select [All Programs] ([Programs] on the Windows® 2000 menu) -> [Pro-face] -> [GP-Pro EX *.**]. (The version of the software you use will be shown in *.**.) 2. The Project Converter starts up and the [Project Converter] window opens. Select [Project File (*.prw)] in the [Data Type]. NOTE * To convert a file in the [Pro-Control Editor], select the [Logic File (*.wll)]. To convert a partial program file (*.wlp) or sub-routine program file (*.wlf), you need to save the file in Project File format with GP-PRO/PBIII first. * To convert a project file (*.lte) from the LT Editor, save it as a *.prw file in GP-PRO/PBIII to enable conversion. * To convert GP-PRO/PBIII library files and mark library files, select either [Library File(*.cpw)] or [Mark Library File(*.mrk)]. GP-Pro EX Ver. 2.7 or later is required when converting and importing them into GP-Pro EX. GP-Pro EX Upgrade Service 3. Designate a GP-PRO/PBIII for Windows' project file (*.prw) in [Convert-From]. Click the [Browse] button and select a project file (e.g.: Project system A.prw). Click [Open], and the file will be set in [Convert-From]. 4.

Click [Save], and a new project file will be set to [Convert-To]. NOTE * If a [Convert-To] file already exists, a message that confirms whether or not to overwrite the file is displayed. 5.

NOTE With Project Converter of GP-Pro EX Ver. 2.7 or later, it’s possible to retain conversion information (conversion log) in a CSV file format. Because differences made at the time of conversion from GP-PRO/PBIII are described in the saved CSV file, the project file (*.prx) after conversion can be checked and modified according to the conversion information.

NOTE To use library files/mark library files converted with the Project Converter of GP-Pro EX Ver. 2.7 or later, importing to GP-Pro EX is required. To know how to import the converted files, refer to the followings. - How to import Library Files (converted to the "*.prx" file) - How to import Mark Library Files (converted to the "*.mak" file)

If you convert a project file (*.prw) with a destination CF card folder designated (see the step 5), the Question dialog box whether or not to designate the destination CF card folder for the convert destination appears again. In the Browse For Folder dialog box, select a folder (e.g.: Database) and click [OK]. If you click the [Make New Folder] button, you can create a new folder at any location. IMPORTANT In the [Question] dialog box, be sure to select [Yes] and specify the destination folder. Otherwise, images will not be called correctly.
