Transfer personal settings

Hi all,

I am not well versed in Access. In fact, I don't know much about it.

However, I have a client who is moving from one computer to another and
wants to have all the settings/forms/etc of what she has customized on her
own machine. The actual database is on a server and she works from her own
workstation.

Hope this makes sense.

thanks

Nate

If she's made customizations, they're stored in whatever MDB she's opened.
If that MDB is on the server, the changes will follow her. If the MDB is on
her hard drive, code it to her new machine.

My guess is she has a split database with the data on the server and her
information, like forms and reports on her machine. It should be a
FILENAME.MDB file. Other personal settings, mostly default paths and last
used files are saved in the Window's registry files as I recall.
