FACT(s) (Environment):
Progress 9.x
OpenEdge 10.x
All Supported Operating Systems
FIX:
All applications developed under 7.x, 8.x or 9.x, whether including ADM2 Smart Objects or not, can be migrated to OpenEdge 10.x by recompiling the source code of the application on the target version.
It is recommended to save all the application modules and then recompile them under the target version.
It is also very important that before migrating or deploy the application in a live environment, to create a test environment and test the application exhaustively to avoid any possible problems in the production environment.
In general, you should not experience any problems migrating any 4GL application to OpenEdge 10.x.
