In case my experience can help anyone else I offer it. Migrating to a 
new Vista computer was painless since I followed the recommended 
steps. Here in brief is what I did.

1. Install latest AmiBroker update on source machine
2. Install AmiBroker on new machine (then install update so both have 
exact same version)
3. Used BeyondCompare to ensure both AmiBroker program directories 
were the same (they were except for one file which I moved over from 
the source machine)
4. Created new database on target machine and populated the folder 
with data from the source machine (same for other databases)
5. Installed Premium Data fresh
6. Tweaked all the menu and toolbar settings etc. and set the program 
to use Vistas' Segoe font

It just worked well.

Notes:
I had a small surprise when the charts weren't filled properly after 
I loaded a layout from the source machine but saving a template from 
the source machine as ".chart" and loading that on the new machine 
restored the layout.

Impressions:
AmiBroker in Vista looks gorgeous and is wickedly fast (my old 
machine was 4 years old and I thought AmiBroker ran fast on it but 
the new install is smokin').

Nice job making this program so flexible and sensible Tomasz
