[Encore] Upgrading from 3.3.4 to 5.0

As far as I know I'm afraid you will have to do the full upgrade routine in 
order to do it safely.
The only other way is to rebuild the spaces in a blank V5 Database and then 
cut 'n paste the details.
Hopefully others will have better suggestions.

Out of curiosity why are you going to use V5?
What parts of V5 do you need that V4 doesn't have?

Ciao
