Take this point please:

1) I recommend at first update your project to be able work with V4RB 2.0.
You should make that it compiles, runs, create new fresh db of 2.0 format.
Add records, close open dbs amd so on.

When you will get all this working, then there is sense add lines
To convert existed dbs of 1.x format into 2.0 format.
You can check example Common/Convert_1_2() for this task.


2) so you say that Valentina.Init() produce compile error ?!
Strange.

Try type    Valentina.

Does REALbasic show list of methods for Valentina class?
Does it list here Init() method ?


3) I think you know you need remove V4RB 1.x plugin from plugins folder of
REALBasic.
