Re: Migration Advise

I'd suggest changing one thing at a time to limit errors. For example, first upgrade to level 7 on your current platform. Then change platforms, then upgrade the applications. Forms 3.0 runs against level 7 even though support is questionable. Limit exposure and keep it simple.
