===== Upgrade Instructions - Toolbox Project =====

For a seamless transition, we recommend planning with enough spare time to convert your Toolbox project. 

First of all, **you need to have your Toolbox working at the latest Toolbox v9.1.x.** If this condition is fulfilled, open your .dp9 project file with Toolbox v9.2.x.

<WRAP center round important 80%>
**Important**\\  We strongly recommend to keep a copy of the original v9.1 (''.dp9'') project file.
</WRAP>

You may receive some ''WARNING'' messages in the [[tb8:utilities#messages|Messages Section]]. Those messages inform you if your Toolbox project is using no longer supported hardware, if other problems occurred or if adjustments were done during conversion of the project. A double click on the message leads you to the hardware module or part of the configuration that is subject of the message.
