I have two VM Pro systems .mdb files, They each have different Modules/Conditions. I would like to merge those two together, so I don't have to build both again. Is there a way that can be done?
 
Export an import modules.
So open one .MDB offline, export all modules and then open the other .mdb and import the modules form the other file.
 
I attempted that before I posted. It seems to replace the current modules with the new .mdb file.
 
Only if the modules have the same name it will overwrite them.
Drop the two .mdb files somewere and I can merge them to one.
 
Allow me to add a tiny little detail there (in red) [smile]

"So open one .MDB offline, export all modules as .mod (it's an option in the drop down when naming the export file), selecting the modules you need, and then open the other .mdb and import the modules form the other file."

If you need to merge in Conditions, export as .con.


Kind regards

I thought anyone should(could) know that. it is under the RTFM key (F1)
 
Looks like That F1-key has been super-glued on many computers [smile]

And you wrote "export all modules", not "database", so the instruction was dead on correct. (But I guess you need to be a geek to see the difference?) [smile]

Kind regards
