Migrating InForm studies to a new machine

You can migrate any supported InForm 5.5.x.x, 6.0.x.x, 6.1.0.x, or 6.1.1.x study to a new machine.

You can perform an in-place upgrade from InForm 6.2.x.x, 6.3, or 6.3.1. For more information, see Running an in-place upgrade. Oracle does not support an in-place upgrade for any InForm release prior to 6.2.x.x.
