Migration wizard

I have a fully functional application using SDAC. I'd like to consider adding support for MySQL too, therefor using UNIDAC.

I have these questions:
1) To install the UNIDAC trial I am prompted for uninstalling SDAC. This means that I won't be able to build.
2) Is there a migration wizard to migrate all the SDAC components to UNIDAC components? Which is the suggested best practice?

Thanks.

SDAC and UniDAC are different components. You can use SDAC and UniDAC components together in one application. If you install UniDAC you don't need to uninstall SDAC.
To convert all SDAC components to corresponding UniDAC components in an application you should use UniDAC Migration Wizard in the UniDAC menu.

i have this message as running the unidac trial installer:

---------------------------
Setup
---------------------------
Setup has detected already installed DAC packages which are incompatible with current version.

Please uninstall DAC products.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------

How can I get more details?

In my machine I have SDAC installed + I have installed MSSQL, Firebird, MySql and PostgreSQL (all these 4 are test database servers). Maybe some of those are giving problems?
