[Dxbase] Config files

You didn't say which version of DXbase your using.
But...if it's 2007, this should work.
After you made a backup of your log file and stored it in a safe place...
Close your present version
In the old computer:
Go to windows explorer, can subdirectory Windows.
Find DXB2007.ini
copy that to your new computers Windows subdirectory
It may ask you if you wish to overwrite a newer version.
If your on a network, this should be easy otherwise, emailing from old 
machine to new machine, or floppy if your machines both have similar.
If you have 'edited' your old Host file, you may want to copy that also.
That's a bit trickier though.
If you had created a custom .co (log layout file), you can copy/paste from 
old dxbase directory to new machines dxbase directory.
