To invoke the conversion, select a group or a bunch of groups in the Groups tab, right-click and select Post Storage, then choose "Import Version 5.XX Headers". A progress screen will pop up and you'll have to wait for it to finish before continuing. Once you are happy with the conversion, you can remove your old SPOOL_V1 folder to save space. If you don't know where your data folder is, go under Options/Setup and click the "Open Data Folder" button.
    Version 6 will NOT run on Windows 98 or Windows 2000.
