Thanks Mark. This is what I was hoping for.

>Yep. Exactly how I do this with my different apps. You do not have to go back to regedit to import. If the file extension is REG, you can just double-click on the file to pop it into the registry. You can also edit the file with Notepad to make any changes if needed for different apps you are working on. For each 1 of my apps I have a REG file with the settings for that app (usually the only differences are the Search paths, Data Path). Make sure you included the field mappings as well in your export.

>Once you import to the registry, you should still go to options to check which classes are in the list because this method only updates and adds, it will not remove an item from a list if it is not in the export file.

>>Can anyone confirm if the following will work? I went into RegEdit and went to section HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VisualFoxPro. I then selected Export Registry File... I am hoping after I install VFP on the other machine I can open RegEdit and choose Import Registry File... The values in this section of the registry looked right but I want to be sure they are and/or if I'm missing other info? TIA

>>>I have gone through the Tools/Options on my existing machine and have the development environment exactly the way I want it. I now need to set up a new machine with VFP and was wondering if there was a way to save my options settings and then set them on the new machine? I'd prefer to not have to do it manually all over again. TIA
