I would like this old WaterCAD model updated to Version 7 so I can open it in WaterCAD CONNECT Edition Update 1. For some reason I am unable to upload the .wcd file. Can I email that file to Bentley instead.

Hello Michael,

V7 models can be opened directly in CONNECT Edition without any 'middle-man' conversion needed - simply select "database files" from the "files of type" dropdown in the file open dialog, then select your MDB file. See the following related article from our Wiki:

Opening old WaterCAD or WaterGEMS WCD model files and preserving presentation settings

One thing that will be lost with that method is the "presentation settings", including color coding and annotations. To preserve these, you can export the presentation settings XML file from WaterCAD V7. I went ahead and did this for you and attached the XML file here. Place this in the same folder as the MDB before opening the MDB per the above information.

Thanks Jessie! Yes, I was hoping to preserve the "presentation settings". That's why I was hoping Bentley would update it to Version 7. thanks again.
