RE: V4 to V5 Drawing Migration (Text and Dimensions)
You need to copy the PROJECT files from V4 to V5, rename them as they contain characters that are not legal in WIN. Put those files in a directory and then point to them in V5. You must also know the PRJ name which you can get by running on AIX, catpath -A -l CATIA.PRJTABLE.

CATIA.PRJTABLE /GOODDB/prj GOODRICH PRJ /GOODDB/dec//CATIA.dcls

Here is a sample of PROJECT files in AIX.
.ACTIVITY.project
