Subject Re: Transitioning From dbase 4 to dbPro 6 From Andy Taylor <andy.taylor@which.net> Date Tue, 19 Jun 2018 06:33:32 -0400 Newsgroups dbase.getting-started Paul, As Rich says you may well get a better response posting in the dbdos newsgroup. However I can summarise the process as: 1) install dbdos on your new machine 2) copy all your dbase4 folders from the old machine into the new machine 3) run the dbase pro 6 easy config program (selecting the old dbase IV exe file) 4) double-click on the config file that gets generated. This will run the dbDOS emulator on your new machine opening a dos style window. From that point you run it as normal. Using the config generator program (not the "easy" one) you can just open DOS emulators starting in any folder, which are then designated as C:\ or D:\ or whatever you like and run any DOS program you want... it does not have to be dbase IV. I hope that helps, Andy > Hello, > > I recently purchased dbDos Pro 6 and am looking to transfer data to it from an older system running windows 95 and dbase 4 through the command >prompt. How do I go about doing so? How can I emulate my older system that runs dbase 4 on a newer system with dbDos Pro 6?
