I know there was a way admin described some time ago that made it possible to do so, just cannot find the thread.
I did understand the request but the 5.08 database has extra fields of data that could make it even more likely to cause problems if you start editing in 5.04 then run 5.08 so am reluctant to give out how to do it.

This was printed in the list of changes in 5.05 when it was first removed.
Quote " REMOVED - Edit Songs Dialog Edit BookID - We no longer allow editing a BookID. The Singers Database uses BookIDs to add Songs under Singers. Thus, changing a BookID used in the Songs Database causes problems that are very hard to diagnose. Once you assign a bookID to a song, it is "permanent.

Since then there have been more updates to the 5.08 database making it even more likely to be incompatible.
