it really is not that hard 1) open regedit with start>run find MapInfo in the software section of both HKLM [local machine] and HKCU [current user] highligh the MI section on the left then do Registry>Export Registry File besure to name each accordingly like MI-HKCU.reg and copy to the USB
2)check under Documents & Settings/[user] for any mapinfo stuff and copy that to a folder on the USB
3) look in c:\[system] [winnt, windows, win98, etc] copy any MI files there to a folder on the USB 4) when you get to a machine copy the folder from above using a "text editor" change any references in the *.reg files navigate to the USB/mapinfo and 2click mapinfow.exe done this many times and MapBasic is much easier Trey Pattillo [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.wap3.com N27.799013 W-97.665322 | If you receive an email that says something like | 'Send this to everyone you know,' | pretend you don't know me.

Is it possible to load and run MapInfo from a USB flash drive? The reason I ask is because I'll be travelling overseas for five weeks (in a few months) and would prefer to just take a USB drive loaded with a working version of MapInfo and my important client data, rather than lugging around a 3 kg laptop. That way, I could check my emails and attend to any client requests on the road. Would there might be issues relating to the Windows OS that the drive is plugged into? Any thoughts, comments or experiences in this area?
