Thanks for the support, Gaylon! Things I wanted say, but I'm getting tired of being beat up!

If Foxboro wants everyone to migrate to XP/mesh (and I believe they do), this has to be a little more palatable. While I'm on my soapbox, I'll fuss about the lack of archive data retrieval (command line) tools on XP also, which is another of the barriers to the Unix =3D3D> XP migration. <RANT MODE OFF> That said, I don't have anything useful to suggest that will help Troy.

This has been quite successfully for a lot of sites that want to move to the mesh and maintain their AIM*AT data. There are not free utilities to do this in the AIM*AT suite. If you want this service we can easily get you to the correct person to write a quote for this service for you. Does Microsoft move all of your files from your old computer to a new computer for you when you upgrade your operating system? Or is this a service that you pay for or risk the loss of data? Do you have to recompile programs when you upgrade from Solaris 2.5.1 to Solaris 8.0? You may do this if you have the expertise, but people buy engineering services to do this recompile all of the time. -----Original Message----- From: foxboro-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:foxboro-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Brazell, Troy L Jr Sent: Tuesday, October 23, 2007 5:06 PM To: Foxboro User Group Foxboro User Group Subject: [foxboro] Aim Historian XP Content-Type: text/plain; charset=3D3D3D"us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable =3D3D3D20 Guys, I just got another surprise while "downgrading" from UNIX to XP. I have been told that my UNIX AIM instance and historical data will not import into the XP version of AIM. Is there a solution out there that will allow me to recover the instance and data from my UNIX box?
