I run the current version on mysql with antelope. I need to make a global switch to barracuda for another app requirement, Will mibew have any problems eith tge barracuda file format?

Thanks for any suggestions or advise.

To begin with, AFAIK, the switch to Barracuda affects only new tables, so the tables of your existing Mibew database should stay intact.

Then, Mibew doesn't use any Antelope-specific features (and actually doesn't perform any direct operations with the database at all), so I don't believe that there should be any problems. (However, I can be wrong.  )
