Default Re: advise please
or you could try manually doing it.. id suggest testing this first though as ive not ever used xam's shit

put all the files required in the latest source onto your test site (just the files dont import the database)

take a copy of ur existing database and set it up for the test site and then set the test source to point to the test database (you still following ??? lol)

then simply go through the SQL adding all the tables/fields that are missing for the new source to work... after that just get a few friends to browse and use the test tracker for a few hours and check every section just to make sure as you may encounter a few errors (most errors can be solved with a combination of coffee and google)

it may sound complicated but it beats upgrading bit by bit .. plus u never kno .. u might actually learn something about programming along the way :)
