>>I am doing some documentation today and was wondering on the exact difference between Migrating and Converting. I have seen this terminology being used at large in similar context. But, when being used properly, there is surely a difference. Anyone would like to comment?

>I would say that migrating is from one version of a particular piece of software to another more advanced version without being able to simply update your code ... whereas, Converting would be moving from one platform to another, say... VFP to .Net... Not sure if this is correct or not.... I really think the terms are used interchangibly...

I agree with your definitions, although I do think there is a difference. The one you state -- same software vs. different software, to which I would add moving to a different OS.

FoxPro 2.6 to VFP would be another example of conversion, not migration. In fact the wizards even use that word, conversion.
