>I have one comnputer. I have an old version of a MM app running. When the app was initially started I specified the location of local and remote data in the PREFERECES dialog that popped up at first start up. Today I installed, on the same computer, in a different directory, a much newer version of the same MM app with data (structure changes and content) and all supporting files etc. When I first started the app I did not receive the PREFERENCES dialog. I knew that the version number of the new app was probably the version number of the old app and hence the registry settings were already in. How do I change the version number of the new MM app so the PREFERENCES dialog comes up and so I can get a seperate registry entry for the new MM app.

Neil,

I go into the APPINCL.DBF table and change the VERSION_LOC.STRING to a new version #. This seems to work when I want to do what you're trying to do. You may need to regen if you include the APPINCL.DBF table in your application. Otherwise, just do it in the APPINCL that is in your new directory.

HTH,
