Hello,

I upgraded from CiviCRM 1.9/Drupal 5.7 to CiviCRM 2.0/Drupal5.12 in order to get past the broken price set feature in 1.9. I also had to re-import all my contact data as, despite the best attempts of the upgrade script, the database schema of 2.0 being so different from 1.9 the data did not transfer over correctly. So, I deleted all my contact info and now I am in the middle of the re-import. I completed importing the contact data and have moved on to import the membership data. Here's where I hit a snag.


My import file has a field with a unique number for each record and I've used this as the external identifier when importing the contacts. I have set CiviCRM's contact matching to match using the external identifier only. When importing membership data I get the error message "Missing required contact matching field: Contact ID" and I've read both
http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php/topic,4056.0.html
and
http://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-3038?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels%3Aall-tabpanel.

Here's my question: Do I understand correctly that there is no fix for this bug in 2.0 but that it is fixed in 2.1 and that to upgrade to 2.1 I will also need to upgrade to Drupal 6?

Thanks,

Chrys
