/convert

For: CimEdit only

Reads each of the files on the command line and writes them out again, changing the extension to .cim .

This utility can be used to

  • Convert .asc or .ctx files to .cim files, or
  • Upgrade .cim files from an older release.
Note:
  • When upgrading files from an older release, save a copy of the .cim files in another directory before executing this utility since this option will overwrite the original files.
  • Make sure to include in the command line the complete path to the file.
  • No CimEdit window is displayed, and CimEdit exits when done. When the conversion is complete, check the Status Log for error messages. Messages longer than 79 characters are in multiple log entries, and the continuation lines begin with "… ".

Example

cimedit.exe /convert C:\MyProj\scr1.asc C:\MyProj\scr2.ctx
