Importing Hm1 database

[SaynotoKlaus]

How do i import all hands i have registered in HM1 to the second?

Ok , i found out how.

I have an issue though. I started importing almost 4 hours ago , and the progress bar is still empty. Apparently the import isn't working.

There are some issues when importing a HM1 database but it is a low priority issue since it has to be handled on a case by case basis and is very time consuming for fixing just one customer's problems (and not nearly as many people are upgrading their HM1 DB's to HM2 as they were immediately after HM2 launch).

Export the hands from HM1 - http://faq.holdemmanager.com/questio...t+Hands#export all files

*Try creating a new DataBase - http://hm2faq.holdemmanager.com/ques...m+Manager+2%3F

*Now import a small portion of your \HMArchive so you can see if the problem exists in the new DB - http://hm2faq.holdemmanager.com/ques...Hand+Importing

All original hands that are auto-imported get moved to an archive for performance reasons. Your \HMArchive is likely not in your \Holdem Manager directory. We normally suggest you use C:\HMArchive, but you may have put it anywhere. The archive should be organized by \Month\DayOfMonth (example: D:\HMArchive\2009\07\31).

Once you have imported the original hands you can also try importing the exported hands to make sure there werent hands in your HM1 database that weren't in your archive.

It turned out that the database i was trying to import didn't have any hands stored. My bad.
