Hi, I made a website using RW7 and would like to upgrade to RW8. what would be a better option with regards to making sure that the project is transferred without loss: 1. Buying a RW8 upgrade 2. Buying RW8 as a whole software Opting for the second option is more expensive but in this case I would have RW7 as well as RW8 and could be certain to avoid losses. Is that correct? Does anyone have experience moving from RW7 to RW8? Responses would be appreciated. Best, Natasha ---

If you buy the upgrade you still have both versions available to you. ---
