Post Moving BookCAT

I have a populated copy of BookCAT 10 on a laptop under Win 7 that I need to move to another computer also running Win 7. How to do it? Copy the program files to new machine and then use DataFolderLocator and ExportSettings to move the database and make the programe feel at hom on the new machine? Will the images (front covers) relocate as part of the database?

Any advice gratefully received.

No. Download the setup file and install, then unlock the demo with your registration key (or transfer your license file -BookCAT.license - to the new computer). Then copy the database file to the \Database folder, and open with File=>Open Database.

Depends on where they are located. If you need to update the file path in the database, use the Tools=>Update Path function.
