====If you use a 3.5.x release ====
 
My advice is to update directly to 3.7.0 or any subsequent release available at [[Software]]. This is because several 3.6.y releases have bugs in them and you want to avoid those problems (the bugs vary in severity between mistakes in calculations done by MX to particular functionality not working).
 
But there aremay be additional actions you need to do when moving from 3.5.x to 3.7.y, depending on what features you use in MX:
*there are no additional actions if '''you use standard web pages and you do not use database tables''', just enjoy the bug fixes and extra features after your update!
*'''If you use database tables''', be aware that the schema (Column names that must be in a table) varies between 3.5.x versions and 3.7.y versions.
**The updating database table features in MX will only work if all the columns named in each such upload update ''already exist'' in the database table it is trying to update.
