There have been quite a few mentions on the list about this a couple of
months ago. The way I do it is to copy the .rmd file only to a new folder,
and then rebuild the database using RM 9 (which will give an 8/9 database).
This does lose one or two references which have some information which makes
them incompatible with RM9 (in a database of 3000 references). I have not
attempted to find what is wrong with these references - waiting for someone
to tell me that they're missing, as there is no way of telling which ones
have not rebuilt properly. The other alternative is to export the references
in RIS format, and then re-import them into a new database. This would
presumably lose the ref ID numbers, which could cause problems if you are
passing documents backwards and forwards.
