When you remove the Central 3.5 server software, make sure
you do not remove the Microsoft SQL Server Desktop Engine
used as the database in Central 3.5.
Then, when you install Central 3.7, new fields will be added to
the database, allowing its content to be used with Central 3.7.
Your configuration from Central 3.5 will then work in Central
3.7 too.
