    Because I have section reports, I have two projects in a solution to upgrade; one which is dotnet 8, one which is dotnet framework 4.7.2. The dotnet framework 4.7.2 version is there to provide report design capabilities.

    I want to upgrade from v18.1.0 to v18.1.1. In the past, I’ve been advised to use the NuGet package manager and only upgrade the main, “Mescius.ActiveReports” package, which should then automatically select other packages to be upgraded. However, that doesn’t seem to be the case, as many other satellite packages would be left in the older version.

    Here is my list of packages from the main project which can be upgraded. You can see that the others aren’t going to get auto-selected. The same thing happens on the dotnet framework project.

    What is the best practice here to ensure everything gets upgraded?

    Also, when will you guys start putting minor release notes somewhere we can get to them, instead of pleading every time in the forums for a list of bug fixes?

    Hi John,

    >> What is the best practice here to ensure everything gets upgraded?

    It is suggested that you use the ActiveReports File Converter tool to upgrade your existing reports from previous versions of ActiveReports.

    >> Also, when will you guys start putting minor release notes somewhere we can get to them, instead of pleading every time in the forums for a list of bug fixes?
