 ## Upgrading ##
 
+### GridField: Replacement for TableListField and ComplexTableField ###
+
+We have a new component for managing lists of objects: The `[GridField](/topics/grid-field)`.
+It's a substantial rewrite of the features previously captured by `TableListField`,
+`ComplexTableField`, `HasManyComplexTableField` and `ManyManyComplexTableField`.
+
+The legacy fields remain operational for now, although a switch to `GridField` is strongly encouraged,
+for stability, interface and performance reasons. The `HasManyComplexTableField` and `ManyManyComplexTableField`
+are no longer maintained, for those you do have to make the switch.
+
+Upgrade example: Record listing
+
+	:::php
+	// before
+	$field = new TableListField('Companies', 'Company');
+	$field->setPageSize(20);
+	// after
+	$field = new GridField('Companies', null, DataList::create('Company'));
+	$field->getConfig()->getComponentByType('GridFieldPaginator')->setItemsPerPage(20);
+
+Upgrade example: Record listing with view/edit interface
+
+	:::php
+	// before
+	$field = new ComplexTableField($myController, 'Companies', 'Company');
+	// after
+	$field = new GridField('Companies', null, DataList::create('Company'), GridFieldConfig_RecordEditor::create());
+
+
+Upgrade example: Relationship editing
+
+	:::php
+	// before
+	$field = new HasManyComplexTableField($myController, 'MyRelation', 'MyRelationObject');
+	// after
+	$field = new GridField('MyRelation', null, $myRecord->MyRelation(), GridFieldConfig_RelationEditor::create());
+
+More information is available in the [GridField documentation](/topics/grid-field).

 ### New template engine ###
 
 The template engine has been completely rewritten, and although it is generally backward compatible, there are new features
