If you want to make sure the new system is set up like the old onethen run the command 'jdiag -vL' and save the 'jdiag.out' file fromthe old system. You can then use that file to set up the environmenton the new system after jBASE is installed.

    If you run 32b Win 7 there are only 4-5 environmental variables to
    set. The loader does the rest.

    I would be very glad to send you the list I use.

    I have found myself needing to migrate from XP Home 32 bit to
    Windows 7 Pro 32 bit a little earlier than I had planned. I am
    running Jbase 3.4.7 developer version in Universe emulation. My
    XP machine motherboard was in the process of a meltdown
    (literally, caps were swollen, ready to explode), but my service
    guy was able to use Windows Easy Transfer and get pretty much
    everything off the XP machine and onto a new one. As an aside,
    this new machine isn't fast, it's sudden!

    It's going pretty well, but getting Jbase working is rather
    involved. Thhe biggest challenge I have right now is getting the
    system and user environment variables merged into Win7. Does
    anyone have a method easier than manually entering them one at a
    time?

    Thanks,

    Thanks guys for all your input.  The only reason I would even
    consider leaving xp is that it will probably be impossible to
    get the updates if the system ever crashed.  I have now found a
    program downloads all the updates to cd and will install them
    easily.  So as long as I am not dependent on MS for those
    updates, I'll be staying with xp. I have an xp install disk with
    sp2, sp3 on separate cd and now all the updates on another cd so
    I can install any time I choose to.

    Yes it's possible and yes get a 'pro' version (avoid anything
    from Microsoft with home anywhere in the name), and it's
    simplest if you get a 32 bit version.

    3.4.10 is the last version, but we have a few laggards so you
    might try whatever version you have in hand.

    Depending on which version you are currently running going to
    3.4.10 may require recompilation.

    Install the .NET Framework SDK V1.1 (to get the C compiler) first.

    Win 7 pro 32 bit works fine.

        With the upcoming demise of xp, I would like to migrate my

        should upgrade my jbase to version 5, I must say at this
        point in my life, I really don't want to go through the
        learning curve and I only have one "client" left with a
        small application running.

        Sooooo.... Is it possible to put my jb 3.x on Win7, and if
        so, what version do I need?  I have "Home Premium" right

now, but think there is a "Pro" version that I should get.Is this true? I would assume there are system variables

        that must be set too, if I want to have the full
        capabilities of compiling and cataloging basic programs.
