Is it possible to use my VPC files from Connectix VPC in VPC 2004?
It would save me time instead of re-installing all my VPCs

Yes, but you'll want to install the newer VPC additions after you update
VPC.

When I tried to open a VHD which was created with Connectix VPC, VPC 2004
said it wasn't in the correct format. Is there something I have to do before
I
open the file in VPC 2004.

I think the version of VPC you had originally is a version that's older than
any I've used, Steve Jain will know the answer to your question.

I don't recall ever seeing that with any of my Connectix VMs. Are you
using the VHD? Was the VM in the a saved state?

I assume you're just creating a new VM and using the existing VHD?
