I found out what was the problem:

this is what you need to do:

1. Rename the files

2. put these files together with the convertor on "C:\temp" - important to put it there.

3. compact the ver6 DB using Access

4. launch the convertor

5. compact the new ver7 DB using Access

6. rename the new ver 7 DB to wwForum.mdb

7. copy this file to your DB folder under the admin folder.

I wish I had somthing in the new DB.

the convertor app starts, it says that it move info to the new DB, but for some reason the new DB does not change and no imported data is saved there.

I followed the instructions very cerfully, changed DB names as reuested and so on.

Thanks
