RE: Implement in stages or not?

["Bob Randall" <BLR@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

We "crash converted" from a System36 MAPICS II to an AS/400 MAPICS XAR4, it
took a looooonnnngggggg time. It about killed me ;-), but it was nice once
it was done (or is it really done?). Not that I would advise anyone to do
that. If you have the option, I would do it in stages.
