you can if you want transfer the whole directory from the one machine to the other. It would not matter if it was a server or an xp, or 98 machine.

The only file that you would need to alter would be the "ContTlog" to alter the paths of your databases.

I have over 300 db's, so i use access to update the path for me, but it you only have 5 - 10 i would do this by hand.

Then you can have a shortcut on each users desktop directing them to the server, instead of a desktop.

Or you can install goldmine on the server, then transfer file over, you are able to overwrite the existing files, with you old file, save you have to re-create users etc. Then after this, you can upgrade if you want, but if your happy with your version, then I would not mess with something ithat is not broken..

Does this help you? If you want any more info please let me know.
