When I installed 2010 it gave an option to install as stand alone or as an add in to existing versions. I have 2006, Classic, and 2009 so I chose Add in. It seems to have installed as a stand alone despite my selection. How do you get 2010 to access existing routes etc from the earlier versions?

The routes marked as "favorite" are the "new" routes included in ST2010 and "upgraded" to run in native mode.
I've just got 2010 and am only moving selective items, as in the stuff I use and not moving the tons that I will never use. That is the add in bit, all the versions are lumped together. I've installed as stand alone then anything that's faulty (I'll have moved it in) hopefully I can edit to get it to comply with 2010 CMP3.2.
What do I need to move, and where do I move it to to bring over my own routes and sessions?
And Davie_UCF, I know there were two install options and one was stand alone. I think the other was "add in" but I don't remember exactly. I'm not going to uninstall and reinstall to check.
Perhaps someone with better memory can enlighten us.

As an alternative to that, you could install it stand alone and then use CMP's Import Content feature and point it at an older Trainz version's Local folder and let it import all your stuff that way. That is likely to take a while to do. I've also heard that CMP might miss some items the first time around, but I don't know for sure if that's true or if it affects TS2010's CMP or not.

I seem to have another couple of problems here. Last night I downloaded a 2006 route from the Download Station (crikey its slow!) and I have my downloads set up to commit automatically. The downloaded route now appears under the installed section of CMP but it doesn't appear in either the driver or surveyor menus of 2006. Where did it go? Tonight I modified a 2006 route and saved it with a new name, but when I go to CMP it doesn't appear anywhere, not in installed, not in my content. Where did that one go?
Also, what is the difference between a session that appears under a route in the driver or surveyor menu, and a "saved session" that is listed under that heading?
Ultimately I'd like to have one version of Trainz accessing all of the previous routes and sessions, but it seems that's not so easy to achieve.
