1The HDM-4 Version 1.3 workspaces are not directly compatible with HDM-4 Version 2 because of the improved data organisation and new features included. The Data Migration Tool enables a user to convert their exisiting HDM-4 Version 1.3 workspaces into a format compatible with HDM-4 Version 2.
2The HDM-4 Version 1.3 is only available as part of a package and can no longer be purchased on its own. Support for HDM-4 Version 1.3 will end in July 2006 under the terms of the HDMGlobal contract with PIARC.
