Need the ability to automatically update the "true" Best Match survey setting in older versions to the proper option in later versions.

In 10.11 R1, the Best Match Field Code survey setting option changed from a True/False option only to a more extensive dropdown list. However, when older survey files are upgraded, there is no way to control which best match option is to be used. ...
