<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am trying to move filePro files from a system
that is around 8 years old (Windows 98) to a new portable computer (Windows
XP professional). The version of filePro on the new system is 5.#. I
do not know the version on the older system but it is at least a few years
old.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>My first hope was LapLink (Gold 11.5) but the old
computer does not have USB ports.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have tried creating a file on the new computer
with the name of the file to be sent over. I put one field in the file
definition with a length of 10 characters. Then I e-mailed all the files
from the old system and saved them to the new file just described. All the
files got mailed and put into the new directory. The screen works, the
processing seems to be okay. The map file is there in three forms 1. a
readable text file, 2. a tmp file that is not readable by windows, 3. another
file named map that is unreadable by windows.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>When I go to the file definition the only thing
there is the single field I created just to make the file
available.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Can anybody help me with this.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thank you,</FONT></DIV>
