[Dxbase] Moving to a new PC

Sat Dec 21 22:24:29 EST 2013

Most of the LOOK stuff (window sizes, colors etc) are stored in the
C:Windows\Dxb2007.ini file, so you will need
That or as least parts of it to copy to the new PC.

Got it. Tnx.
So, after reading it I will install the patches for the DXB help functions.
I assume the only two files I need to import are the n2tk.mdb and n2tk.co to
have the look and function as my present PC running DXB. I will remove the
other three files.

There is a PDF that explains the steps needed to make this work included in
the zip file with the installer.

Moving DXBase 7 from an XP PC to a WIN 7 Pro PC.
It has been so long that I needed to do anything with DXBase that I am rusty
with setting it up.
Downloaded the latest version and installed it on the new PC. Have not
started the program yet. I had read somewhere about downloading patches to
enable DXBase help functions? Is that still needed?
Copied the n2tk.mdb, n2tk.ldb, n2tk.co, refdata.ldb and the refdata.mdb to
the new PC. I have not started DXBase yet after copying the files.
If I remember correctly I just double-click the .reg file to register the
copy of DXBase?
Is there anything else I need to copy and/or should I not copy all the above
5 files?
Anything else I ned to know or do before starting DXBase?
Tnx
N2TK, Tony
