Mike, If you have your database backed up I wouldn't think it would be a big deal at all. Just re-install DXBase and then copy your data bases back into the program. I have heard a few "tales of woe" from those who have failed to back up their mdb files, so at least you are not in that boat.
As far as Windows goes, I personally format my hard drive and do a fresh install of Windows about once a year (or sooner if I notice programs running abnormally slow). If you take this approach, delete all the programs you don't want before installing DXBase again. >From what I have picked up from Windows Geeks is the registry file gets full >of "crap"; if one is a computer wizz, he would be able to go into the registry >and "clean it up"; unfortunately, I am not one!!
