C'mon guys. It uses the API. Simple as that. Else, how would a Merge filter fire? Note that the API allows you to turn off Merge filters on any run but the Import tool does not offer this option. - Meta-Update does,
Confirm with a simple test running API and SQL logging (to the same file!) on the arimport target server. Then read the plethora of logging output for your run. Perhaps Misi's log reading program would help. The internal (read: database) structure of the data is (mostly) not relevant when using the API. Cheers Ben Ben Chernys Software Tool House Inc.

While I am sure you are correct I am wondering if anyone can confirm that indeed all data from the T, H, and B tables is moved when using Migrator. This is a very important question for me right now and I must be as sure as I can of the answer. Thanks, Roger A.

The data is copied using the API, so the actual T/B/H tables are not accessed directly by Migrator. Or so I would think... You can also use our RRR|Chive to move the data. In this case, I definitely know that all the data for each form is copied. You can move all your data in a single pass of RRR|Chive. RRR|Chive can also do incremental copying of your data. Anything modified/deleted on the target server will be restored. Anything changed on the source server will copied over. Just use the SYNCTOTARGET-mode which is default if you use the online configurator. https://www.rrr.se/cgi/rrrchive/main Best Regards - Misi, RRR AB, http://www.rrr.se Products from RRR Scandinavia: * RRR|License - Not enough Remedy licenses?
