Open text editor and simply copy and paste, then save it in: "C:\Program Files\TheBat2.0" directory as "TBbkup.bat". Create a directory on the c drive as ""C:\email" Open command box by Start|Run|type cmd hit enter. At prompt type the following: "cd c:\program files\TheBat2.0" type "TBbkup.bat" and the batch should run WinRAR from the command line. > Thank you very much Greg, I appreciate your efforts to help, and your > patience.

Install WinRar on 2nd PC. Now if the WinRAR switches are correct the compressed file should have the directory structure within it. So all you have to do is dump the "TBBackup.rar" onto a CD and de-compress it onto the new PC to the "C:\Program Files\TheBat2.0" directory keeping the directory structure intact on the de-compression. On the new PC the "TBbckup1.reg" file should be in the program directory of "C:\Program Files\TheBat2.0". Open Windows Explorer to the program directory and double click on "TBbckup1.reg" file. You should now be in business on the new PC with the exact same settings as the original. -- Best Regards, Greg Strong Using The Bat! v3.0.2.7 on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 2 ________________________________________________ Current version is 3.0.1.33 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
