You didn't say which version '2' you upgraded from. Let's say it was 2.4.x

The supported upgrade path would be: 2.4.x -> 2.6.x -> 3.0 -> 4.0 (the 
scheme changed with 3.0)

Skipping versions (such as 2.4 ---> 4.0) is not supported.

You should also perform Actions > Check & Repair > Check & Repair All 
from the Accounts tab immediately after opening your file on each upgrade.

Of course, always have a backup of the original data file handy and 
don't take the next step until you verify everything looks okay.

See the Wiki for more info.

Regards,
Adrien
