Upgrading older versions of BallroomDJ (prior to 1.20)

[bll]

The safest way to upgrade from an older (before version 1.20) BallroomDJ version is to do the following:

• Rename the BallroomDJ folder (e.g. to BallroomDJ.old)
  Install the new version of BallroomDJ
  Copy the following folders and files from the old folder to the new folder:
  • data/ (the entire folder)
    code/genres.tcl
    code/dancetypes.tcl
    code/dancespeeds.tcl
    code/dancedefaults.tcl
    code/ratings.tcl
    code/rules.tcl
    code/status.tcl
    code/sortopt.tcl

With this method, you will have a backup of your files and there is no danger of having your data deleted.
