Hi Ram,

I think you can upgrade from BW 3.5 version to BW 7.3 version with Java. Is it a Unicode Migration?

Please check the [Upgrade to NetWeaver BW 7.30|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/d00f4372-e2fa-2d10-1ea7-efdfacd07965?QuickLink=index&overridelayout=true] for upgrade info.
