Just tried it on second computer. (I have DXB running on three at home and one at work, redneck back-up). Didn't update the prefixes on the second computer either. To reiterate, I'm copying the the refdata.mdb file off the computer that shows the updates properly installed and dropping it into the folder on two other versions of DXB and the prefixes aren't updating. What am I missing here?????
