Subject Re: Licence transfer from one pc to onother From DARIO <dario@barzon.it> Date Wed, 13 Jul 2022 19:21:05 -0400 Newsgroups dbase.getting-started In fact I emailed and was added a couple of licences. Now  after one day Dbaseplus10 stopped working properly. NO inspector window appearing when righ clicking on a field during programming . I am tempted to reinstall  dbaseplus10.
