[Dxbase] 2006 to 2007 label compatiblity

Fri Feb 10 11:34:12 EST 2012

Mike,
Back when I upgrade to 2007 from 2006 there was no problems with the 
templates I used. However, there was a very minor 'got ya!' when I did the 
update to v.1.09. It had to do with the 'justification' command and was 
easily fixed, and now that I think of it a minor hic-up with the way some 
images were presented. If you check back through the archives you will find 
in detail what I had to do, but the short version was import each template, 
make the adjustments if necessary, check templates both on screen and print 
and save.
As for the /root directory I believe that is what is recommend now. The only 
real reason I put DXBase in the /root of my primary drive was so I did not 
have to chase folders to find a file. Also, make sure you check paths for 
all your images when you move DXBase. I think the mapping is relative, but 
again can't remember for sure.
