TipIf you are collaborating with others using Send/Receive, you need to coordinate the use of this utility. You may want to get more help before you use this utility.
If you are not collaborating, and do not want to keep the results of the conversion (e.g., you converted too many variant types), restore the project. Then, do the above steps again.
