Mary,
I haven't done this myself, but give it a try.
1. Exit your client.
2. Copy your prime95 directory to your recipient's hard drive in a directory
called prime95_tmp.
3. Edit that temporary directory's worktodo.ini and take out the exponents
you do not want to transfer (leave the ones you do want to transfer).
4. Exit their primary client.
4. Start their "temporary" client from that directory.
5. Have them go to the Test Menu/User Information screen and change your
info to theirs.
6. Have them Stop and then Start the client - I would expect that the info
change would then get transmitted.
7. Exit their "temporary" client.
8. Edit their primary worktodo.ini to add the worktodo entries of their
"temporary" client.
9. Also copy any p and q files corresponding to those transferred exponents,
if any.
10. Start their primary server. Hopefully the are now running okay.
11. Edit your primary worktodo.ini and remove those transferred exponent
work items.
12. Start you primary client.
13. If everything is okay, remove your p and q files corresponding to those
transferred exponents, if any.
14. Remove both temporary directories.
You said by hook or by crook.
Simple <roll eyes,smile>.
