Mike,

Several possible reasons come to mind:

1.  You are not logged in as administrator.
2.  Your 2006 db was moved by way of a CD and you didn't change the file 
properties  to remove the readonly permission after copying from the cd to 
your new machine's hard drive.
3.  You didn't get a solid install on the new machine of DXbase and would 
need to reinstall per the instructions on the help file.

Regards,
Jack
