Hey Gang,
 
So I have used X2 since the day it came out. I have many projects (unfinished) I wish to finish in X3.
 
I recently purchased X3 and installed it on top of my X2, I have all the latest updated (C, I believe).
 
What is the best way to export my X2 projects for importation into X3? For you vets, is there anything I should be aware of in doing this?
 
Thanks everyone, Love ya all!

Back up the project first! :)

Have a backup as Alex sez.  Then simply open the old project in X3.  Save it as something like  "my project X3."  Done.  You can work on the project w/ the X3 file and you'll have the old one for safety.

yup, just what they've said,
 
every new version that comes out I like to back up all songs first.
then each new song I load I save that song as Example:
in x2 it was called- better than eva.cwp
in x3 I save it as - better than eva x3.cwp

One thing I would add, try to finish some of your projects on X2 first for a couple of days before upgrading. Get some of them out the way done and dusted....
Easier said than done I know... I know you won't take this advice :).

hahaha, ya I really want to play with X3 :) but I see the wisdom in what you have said :)

THANK YOU EVERYONE!!!!!!
 
I will do as advised, just wanted to make sure I wasn't forgetting anything.
 
You are all awesome, happy mixin'!
 

Keep in mind that since you did not delete X2 prior to installing X3, X2 is still available should you need it. Cakewalk installs products side-by-side, older versions are not removed when installing upgrades.

Thankx! I wondered since it still showed in my drive, I just didn't test it. Now I really have no excuse for not taking CakeAlexS's advise :)
