Addins issue when upgrading from Lawson version 9 to version 10

We are upgrading from Lawson Version 9 to Lawson version 10 so our product line has changed. When I pull an addins query from our old product and change the product line to our new product line and save the query once I reopen the addins query it gives me the attached error and all the criteria is missing. Our only option right now is to re-create all of our addins queries from scratch with our new product line. Has anyone experience the same issue? And is there a workaround where I don't have to re-create the queries from scratch?

I have opened the .dme file in TextPad and replaced the product line name manually.

Thank you David, it worked like a charm!

Daniel,

Did you have any other issues changing the product line? We are in the middle of our upgrade to V10 and would like to know what we should expect.

Thanks!

Great response, David. As an added tip, I found a process that worked well. Consider asking your add-ins users to save their add-ins files to a network directory reserved for the 10x upgrade. I found that you can use Notepad++ and run a recursive search/replace to update all files with the new product line name. Sure beats opening every single one individually.

Also, when testing, users will just need to be sure to change the connection string to the new 10x serve URL, a common help desk ticket.

I think we did this the hard way. We had users save their queries to a version 10 and then open that version and change the prodline and save. We did not want to overwrite the version 9 since we were still using all of our add-ins while testing version 10
