can't backup program from xp to vista
« on: January 27, 2010, 12:43:55 PM »
I have a 2003 Goldmine program on an old dell laptop with xp operating system.  I would like to transfer the file via a stick into my new laptop with a vista operating system.  I backed it up to a stick but the info wont transfer into the  loaded goldmine program with the vista system.  Can anyone please tell me if this will work and how i can make this happen.

Programs cannot be simply copied from 1 machine to another and be expected to run...
They need to be installed.

This is by design...

Two options:
  Therefore, you will have to get your sales files that your have already made and then buy a new program.
