Migrating Oracle InForm studies to a new machine

You can migrate any Oracle InForm 7.0.0.1 study to a new machine. Versions prior to Oracle InForm 7.0.0.1 must be migrated to Oracle InForm 7.0.0.1 before being migrated to 7.0.1.1.

You can perform an in-place upgrade from Oracle InForm 7.0.0.1. For more information, see Running an in-place upgrade. In-place upgrades are not supported for Oracle InForm releases prior to 7.0.0.1.

For more information, see Requirements for the Oracle InForm studies you can migrate.

Depending on the Oracle InForm version you are migrating from, some steps may not be required.
