[S] transfer of .Data directories

For many years now, I have been using S-Plus Version 3.1 Release 1 on a DEC RISC machine running Ultrix 4.2. With Y2K looming, this machine will be going to the mothballs. There is another machine available for use, a SUN SPARC running SunOS 5.5 which has SPlus Version 5.0 Release 3.

My question, is it at all possible to take my old SPlus3 data, transfer it over to the other system and use it with SPlus5? If so, can I hope it would be as simple as moving the .Data directories I have set up from one system to the other? If not the simple route, can anyone recommend the necessary steps to make this happen?

Please respond to me at: kgregory@alertsol.com

Thanks very much for any assistance on this matter,

Kevin Gregory
