Moving assets betweeen databases.

[ben3486]

Trying to move some assets from one database to another. They were uploaded to the wrong one and now I cant find a way of moving them from the one theyre on over to the correct one.

Have tried uploading to the tester and then downloading to the new database, but this doesnt work.

Have also tried dragging and droppping and also ecporting and importing on the new database, but nothing seems to work. Any help or ideas would be greatfully recieved.

Using PATguard Pro and a Seaward Supernova.

Unfortunately, we cannot help you here in Technical Support, as we no longer support this software or have information regarding this.

Finally, if you want to import your old database into the PATGuard 3 trial, please make sure you make a copy of your old*.mdb file, as once opened in PATGuard 3 it cannot be reopened in an older version.

Kind regards

Surely, the same issue is relevant in PatGuard3?
Drag and drop certainly doesn't work and I can find no easy way of moving assets.

Is there a way of moving assets?

Thank you for your enquiry

The Drag and Drop feature is working in the latest version of PATGuard 3, if you do not have at least 3.1.2, then please download from below:

Once in PATGuard 3, make sure you are in “PAT Testing” (in bottom left window). Select the asset you want to move (from the large right hand window) and then drag it to the location required (in the left hand upper window).

Please note renaming the asset location/site does not work, drag and drop is the only way to move assets.
