My upgrade appeared to fail, with the error message "LinkTable: Dao exception: Object 'Allele' already exists." What happened?
Basically what happened is that the database was upgraded successfully, but the last step to link a few tables from the interface file to the database did not finish. There are many reasons why this could happen. All you need to do to complete the upgrade, is to perform the following:
(MS Access 2007 instructions):
Close the upgrade utility.
Open the interface file \JCMS.mdb.
At the Welcome Screen hit the F11 button.
Find the Tables section in the Access Objects list to the left.
Highlight all the linked tables and delete them.
Click the External Data Tab at the top.
Click Access Icon.
Select Link to data source ....
Set filename \JCMS_db.mdb Click OK. Select all tables. Click OK.
Close JCMS and restart.
