You can analyze peak usage from earlier MeetingPlace versions (such 
as 5.0). To do so, create a Daily Analysis chart in the earlier version and save 
it to a file (choose 
File
 menu > 
Save As
). Then, open the file in version 5.1, 
and create a Summary Port Utilization chart using the instructions above.
Monthly trending tools
The monthly trending tools display information to help you review your 
system’s conferencing growth and determine the right time to upgrade 
MeetingPlace.
The data that MeetingTime uses to create the monthly trending charts is stored 
on the MeetingPlace system and is purged after a specified amount of time. 
The amount of time MeetingPlace stores this data is determined by the Days 
Until Mtg Stats Purged parameter, which is located in the Configure tab under 
Scheduling Parameters.
After you run a monthly trending tool for the first time, save the data for that 
month in an historical file in a central location before you exit the application. 
(You can copy and past the information, including any graphs, into other word
