2.4.1 Upgrade from below version 3.2

It is important that the settings of an existing Voicemail Pro are exported before any upgrade. Although folders that
contain prompts and messages are not affected by the upgrade process, the editable version of a customer call flow is
lost.
To upgrade from below version 3.2 to version 4.x+:
1.Export the Database
Before removing Voicemail Pro as part of an upgrade, you must create a backup copy of the call flow database. This
will contain any customizations made to the default call flow.
1.Start the Voicemail Pro Client.
2.From the File menu, select the option Import or Export.
3.Select the option Export call flows and click Next.
4.Enter a file path and file name ending in .mdb, for example C:\temp\backup.mdb. Click Next.
5.Click Finish to start the export then click Close to complete the export procedure.
6.Close the Voicemail Pro Client.

2.Right-click the CD drive and select Open.
3.Locate the file backupreg.bat and double-click it to run the application.

3.Remove Voicemail Pro
Any previous versions of Voicemail Pro must be removed before you start to install the new version.

Finish.
4.Restore the Registry
The Voicemail Pro registry settings that were backed up in step 2 needs to be restored.
1.Right-click the CD drive that contains the Voicemail Pro CD and select Open (reinsert the CD if necessary and
cancel the install wizard).
