I have developed a software which just completed its Beta stage and was finally released but a few of my customers have entered quite a lot of data.
While transiting the software from Beta to Release Candidate the data structure has changed heavily.
Now I want to implement a way of importing or upgrading the existing (Beta) database according to new structure easily. There are a few tables that have to be also updated and the data in those tables has to be according to the latest database. Like for example I have defined a table which contains all user privileges. The number of privileges between beta and final is very large. These have to be according to what exist in the latest version.
Can someone give me idea as to how to do easily achieve this upgrading of database please.
TIA
