It's been a long time since I did one of these, but UniData has a conversion 
tool to switch DICTs.  It's pretty good, but as always, you need to verify.

Subject: [U2] Microdata Conversion

To All:

The day is finally approaching. One of my Microdata clients is now wanting to 
switch to a contemporary platform.

Because of being a Microdata, I have a fork in the road: 1) Do I pursue a 
system that can run in Microdata Flavor, ie Unidata or 2) do I endeavour on the 
path of either programatically or manually changing the true-PQN procs to more 
traditional PQ procs to end up on a D3 system.

Also, I recall one of my other clients having switched from MCD to UD before me 
and there must have been a dictionary converter to go from the 10 line items to 
the 7 line items. That converter put the original 10 line dict (attributed) on 
line 10 of the new dict item, replacing @am with @vm's.

I would like to gather opinions from anyone who has done such a conversion as 
well as from VAR's that could facilitate either the specific sale and/or the 
conversion.

You may contact me directly at [email protected] 

Thanks
Mark Johnson
