  I have reportname.rpx report created in ActiveReports 6.
  
  In reportname.vb I have

  Public Class reportname
  
  Inherits ActiveReport
  
  Public Sub New()
  
  MyBase.New()
  
  InitializeReport()
  
  End Sub
  
  #Region “ActiveReports Designer generated code”
  
  Private WithEvents PageHeader As DataDynamics.ActiveReports.PageHeader = Nothing
  
  Private WithEvents GroupHeader1 As DataDynamics.ActiveReports.GroupHeader = Nothing
  
  Private WithEvents Detail As DataDynamics.ActiveReports.Detail = Nothing
  
  Private WithEvents GroupFooter1 As DataDynamics.ActiveReports.GroupFooter = Nothing
  
  Private WithEvents PageFooter As DataDynamics.ActiveReports.PageFooter = Nothing
  
  Public ds As DataDynamics.ActiveReports.DataSources.SqlDBDataSource
  
  Private TextBox As DataDynamics.ActiveReports.TextBox

  Public Sub InitializeReport()
  
  Me.LoadLayout(Me.GetType, “Paluch.Desktop.repproutesbydriver.rpx”)
  
  Me.ds = CType(Me.DataSource,DataDynamics.ActiveReports.DataSources.SqlDBDataSource)
  
  Me.PageHeader = CType(Me.Sections(“PageHeader”),DataDynamics.ActiveReports.PageHeader)
  
  Me.GroupHeader1 = CType(Me.Sections(“GroupHeader1”),DataDynamics.ActiveReports.GroupHeader)
  
  Me.Detail = CType(Me.Sections(“Detail”),DataDynamics.ActiveReports.Detail)
  
  Me.GroupFooter1 = CType(Me.Sections(“GroupFooter1”),DataDynamics.ActiveReports.GroupFooter)
  
  Me.PageFooter = CType(Me.Sections(“PageFooter”),DataDynamics.ActiveReports.PageFooter)
  
  Me.TextBox = CType(Me.PageHeader.Controls(0),DataDynamics.ActiveReports.TextBox)
  
  End Sub

  #End Region
  

  End Class

  How I can convert it without recreating all reports?

  Hello,

  Also, you have to change the namespace manually as the namespace changed from AR6 to AR14.

  Thanks,
