I need to convert old flowcode 5 project files to flowcode 9. I have over 60 old FC5 projects that need to be updated for newer PIC's is there a file convertor for this. please help.

Hello.
Conversion from FC5 to FC9 is not straightforward as there would be components in FC5 that or either obsolete in FC9 or had macros changed e.g. removed or renamed etc.
The easiest way to convert would be to use FC6 or FC7 and load the fcf file.
Then a Project name_v6.fcf or Project name_v7.fcfx will be automatically created.
I can convert a few fcf progest for you, if you want to zip them up and pm me with the zip file.

Hi Barry.
you can go to this url and log in.
You will then see all the version of flowcode starting from latest version going back to FC6.
That will allow you to download the installer and key.

Hi , tried the URL but only shows FC9 do I need a different password ( the one I used for FC6) this would pose a problem because it was all on the duff computer and I have no Idea what the user name or password were

[medelec35]

Yes, you would have to use the username and password that you had for flowcode 6
Do you remember the email address you used for v6?

Hi, Installed FC6 ok, when started it goes stright to the Activate Flowcode popup I click on Activate, then a FAILED TO CONNECT popup appers, klick on ok it goes. So I try the manual Activation where it asks for my user name,I input it, I then try the 2 codes on my account all to no avail. What ever I do all I get is ACTIVATION FAILED THE LICENSE FILE IS MISSING OR CORRUPT. what do I need to do!!!!!
