Upgrade your dictionary to version 4

If you have been using any previous version of DDP, you can upgrade the semantic domain numbers in the \is (index of semantics) field in your dictionary to version 4. CC tables are available to convert any of the previous versions to version 4. A documentation file DDP4_Version_Upgrades_Instructions.doc explaining how to upgrade your dictionary is included with the CC tables.

If you wish to import a dictionary developed with an earlier version of DDP into SIL FieldWorks, you need to run the appropriate CC table to upgrade your files prior to the import process.
