We are about to begin upgrading our Datacap system from 9.1.5 to 9.1.9.  We have a number of custom scan and verify panels for Datacap Desktop compiled inside the DotEditPanels.dll and DotScanPanels.dll files. @Duke Lam  had mentioned in another thread to me a while back that we will need to "recompile your 9.15 panels with the 9.19 DDK panels.  I get that and want to do that.  However, being new to Visual Studio,  what does that consist of?  I have the 9.1.9 developer kit.  How do I physically get the old custom panels into the new compilation? Any help is appreciated and I am good with you giving instructions as if I were 10 years old.  

Apology, I am not a developer to guide you through building custom panel.  In the DDK for 9.19 there are instruction.   I think my explanation needs clarification.  For custom action the  dll yes you need to recompile.  For scan panel, you need to build the scan panel off the 9.19 scan panel from the ddk.   So whatever field on your existing panel changes you've down under 9.15.  You'll need to take the panel from 9.19 ddk and do the same.

Thank you for the reply.  I was hoping there was a way to copy the custom panel files from the old Visual Studio solution over to the new upgraded solution or something like that instead of having to recreate each custom panel.
