Is there a script you can provide to update the database tables from one version to the next? We're currently on 19.3 and would like to move to 20.4, but I'd rather not have to go through each table, identify the differences, and write the changes myself if I can avoid it. Currently I'm building both versions from the source in my testing environment.

Is a script like that something you could provide? Is there a better way to do what I need to do? I cannot upgrade any live instances at this time.

the code has the script built into convertdatabase.cs

Wonderful, thank you!

The "script" is in C#. You can't run in separately. When you are ready to update, launch 20.4 and connect to the 19.3 db. It will prompt you to update the db.

I had to clear the VlaueString for the WebServiceServerName preference so it would let me update, but I got it working.
