Purpose This package contains utilities to upgrade the type dictionary images from 8.0 to 8.1. The dictionary tables that could be in 8.0 are kottd$, kottb$, kottbx$, kotad$ and kotmd$, which existed in 8.0 or 8.1, when 8.0 compatibility was possible, kotadx$ was created in 9iR2 when we required 8.1 minimum compatibility.
