In addition, look at the properties of the shortcut to see if there is a startup file or startup folder that may be different from the database folder. Good luck!

If RBase finds this file then it will automatically run it. Just have your "start in" directory on the icon be the directory where your database and the RBase.dat file is, and it will open it. This is probably trivial in a sense. I am not an extensive user of Rbase, in fact only one application, a simple database that I have used for well over 5 years. Just a while ago, complete computer crash, reinstall the OS, in this case XP-PRO. I can find the shortcut to my working program with the database, and the database files, but not the application itself. I can open Rbase and look at the datafiles, but there must be there a program that 'runs' the system as I use it. But I do not know what that application is called, or my real question, the file type.
