New computer

Postby lindam » Thu Oct 14, 2010 12:09 pm

We upgraded our computer. How do I transfer the PC data over so I don't have to re-enter 500 families!

All you need to do is move the entire PCPLUS folder from the old pc to the new one. You may then have to run the netsetup program to install the runtime files.

Or you can do a full backup of the existing installation, install the program on the new machine as a brand-new installation, then restore the backup.

Either way, it will work ;)

If you install from the CD, please be sure to install the latest MR again.
