Hi Alistair.

I sppoke to soon. :(

I ran the conversion after making the patch with everything appearing
to work fine.  It runs through "converting entries..." and finishes.
However, when I check the typo DB there's been no import.  No articles
showing up in the backend or in the database itself.

Bit awkward as there's no error message to give a hint about it

Don't suppose you have any ideas do you?

All the best.

Doug
