Adopting Vision Projects
Vision project can be opened by Vision if it is complete (all project database files are present in the
project folder) and if the location of the project is in Vision security database. Projects backed up and
restored in Vision automatically create a record in the security database. However, if a project is
moved from one computer to another without backing up (as a collection of project database files,
whether compressed or not) restoring it requires special tools.
Vision provides a function to adopt (restore) such databases. In order to adopt Vision project follow
these steps:
•
If the project is in a removable media (such as CD or memory stick) insert the media into the
drive or connect it into the USB port. Open Windows Explorer and make sure Windows
recognizes the media.
•
Inspect the project file. If it is in a compressed form (e.g., a ZIP file) use appropriate program
(such as WinZip) to unzip it. It is highly recommended to copy the project files from removable
media to the hard drive.
