Whwn you do that you will also generate the subfolders for text, pictures and media. You the go to you now present dataforlder as you see down in the from of the first screnn. Make a copy of the datafiles all names as bk....dt6 and move the copy to the new datafoder (9 files) You do the same with pictures, media and extenal text files. They you start the new database by seleting that from BK, File / OPen databasen and find the correct database. (Or you can use File / Utilities / find BK6 database) (If you have also Pictures you might change the path to all pictures) Rember that we now use 6.5 -- Otto Jørgensen http://www.bkwin.info/ All email is checked by NORTON
