[Dxbase] New PC

I think id move the whole directory over after you do the install and the registration and see what happens if you have changed the looks of the screen and stuff. If its no big deal then all you need to move is the data file and the log file then set it up just like the other puker for rig control and such and you should be good..

Subject: [Dxbase] New PC 

I need to install DXbase 2007 on a new computer. I keep my archive log on 
my laptop (the one being replaced) and an up-to-date mirror copy on the 
shack desktop PC. I have the DXbase 2007 download file and my registration 
key. I know I can install the program on the new laptop and activate it. 
Then I need to import 53K+ QSO records. 

My question is: which files--if any--from the current laptop would I _NOT_ 
want to transfer to the directory on the new laptop? That is, are there 
files that are specific to this platform that should not be moved to the new 
platform? Clearly, my .mdb files, radios.ini and refdata.mdb will move 
across along with the Reports, Labels and other folders. What would happen 
if I simply moved the entire directory contents from the old laptop to the 
new one? 

Both laptops are Dell and the OS for both is XP Pro.
