I am in the midst of migrating from an old laptop with XP to a new Dell with
Vista. I've installed DXBase2006 and it seems to be running ok. One 
problem that I haven't been able to solve yet is the Hosts file location. 
Where does DXBase2006 look for the Hosts file in Vista? The Help manual 
says it goes in the Windows folder in previous Windows versions, but I've 
tried copying it there with no luck. All I see on the Options/Internet tab 
is the message that the Hosts file cannot be found. I know someone has 
solved this before so would appreciate the tip. Thanks.
73,
Gary AL9A
