Post From: Migrating to New Spreadsheet

I have developed a trading system based on the Old Spreadsheets. It has hundreds of Defined Names and several hundred formulas.

Unfortunately, for real-time quotes I need to upgrade to 1392 or later. It appears that support for the Old Spreadsheets was dropped sometime prior to 1392. If that is true, then I need to migrate to the New Spreadsheets.

Unfortunately, when I installed the current version of Sierra Charts, 1445, the installation attempted to convert my old spreadsheet, but failed. I didn't capture the failure message. However, I have attached my Old Spreadsheets spreadsheet if that helps.

I don't see an "Import Old Spreadsheet" command in the 1445. That surprises me since that would appear to be a convenient way to try the conversion again and at least capture the error message. Short of that, I do see any way to force the conversion again except a re-install of Sierra Chart on top of the old version that still supported the Old Spreadsheets.

Your suggestions regarding how to best resolve this issue would be most welcomed!
