Hello Gerry

Take a final backup of you database, by going to the "database backup manager" and select "create new backup file", then "backup up" the database. Do this twice, then select the first one backup you took (second fromt he top in the backup list), (this is because papertiger will not let you archive the most recent backup as it is being read and written to by the system).

 

Next archive the file, to a location of your choice. Copy it onto a flashdrive and move it to the new computer. The open Papertiger and select convert a database, then use the >BAL format.

 

 

Thanks
