The process is simple:
1. | Back up the data on the old machine, using File | Database Maintenance | Backup Database. You will now have a backup file named something like this: ClipMate6_DB_My Clips_2004-04-13_0041.ZIP. Note that the date and database name are part of the file name, and will be different on your system.
|
2. | Place the backup file somewhere that the new PC can get it*.
|
3. | Install a new version of ClipMate onto the new PC. Run the program, and establish your new database location. Enter your registration key, if you have it handy.
|
4. | Restore the data from the backup, using File | Database Maintenance | Restore Database From Backup.
|
* You can transfer the ZIP file to the new PC using any method necessary. Including and not limited to: over a network, CD-R, ZIP disks, USB Flash devices, digital cameras (memory card acts like a disk drive), e-mail, laplink, etc.. It probably WON'T fit on a floppy diskette.
