Hi Adrien
Thanks for your reply
I am indeed up and running and because I only had a couple of saved report
configurations, it has been straightforward enough to simply recreate them ;-)

Martin,
You've got your answer about the data file, but preferences and any

To see iCloud files on a Mac:
Click on the iCloud drive in the Sidebar of a Finder window.
If it is not there, do the following:
Go to the Finder
Open Finder settings
Click on the Sidebar tab
Check the box for iCloud Drive
Close the settings window
Click on the iCloud Drive that now appears in
Open finder. There will be a list of folders on the left. On mine one of them
is "iCloud Drive". Click on that and hopefully it will be there.

You could also store the data file in an online storage location (Dropbox or
