Converting dxGrid to cxGrid

I am converting an existing database application from D7 to D2009, so I will no longer use dxGrids. Is there any automatic way to convert dxGrid components to cxGrids? If not, what would you suggest to me to get time converting them manually?

Here is an issue on the Dev Express site that addresses this issue www.devexpress.com/issue=CQ59375

Excerpts:

In short, you should follow these steps for your current project:

1) Install both versions of ExpressQuantumGrid (v3 and v6) for Delphi6;
2) Convert your old grid layout to the latest product (see the "Convert to ExpressQuantumGrid" section in the ExpressQuantumGrid Documentation for more information on this subject);
3) Adjust your code to use the latest product version;
4) Install the latest ExpressQuantumGrid (v6) for Delphi 2007; 5) Use the converted project in Delphi 2007.



In the help file they link to:

ExpressQuantumGrid provides a design-time import dialog for importing settings from a third-party control grid and converting them into native ExpressQuantumGrid properties. Three types of grid components can be imported into ExpressQuantumGrid:

ExpressQuantumGrid3 (TdxDBGrid) and ExpressQuantumGrid3 Schema (TdxDBGridLayout)
Standard TDBGrid
W2W InfoPowerGrid 3000 (TwwDBGrid)

VCL's ExpressQuantumGrid may have the migration support you need.
