check your path on each, sounds like the path or drive map on the new ones
is not the same as the older.

Subject: new computer problem
Just bought two new computers and when the rbase was put on (files are
running on network, program running on local drive), program will not run.
Everything runs on old computers (they are still set up in the shop until we
know for sure all the files have been moved to the new computers).
One computer is running 4.0 (I know....)
The second computer is running 5.5dos.
The program will launch from the C: drive, but when you change drives to the
network here is what happens:
The database shows all the tables, etc. but when you open a table and try to
view the data an error comes up that says "Cannot find Help file....". I
checked the files on the new computer against what is on the old computer
and they are EXACTLY the same...nothing missing. What HELP file is it
wanting?
When I try to open the program from the icon on the desktop (whose
properties are exactly like the old computer that is working) it brings up a
black window...shoots a bunch of writing across the window screen and shuts
down....never launches RBase.....
HELP......... what is going on...is it an Rbase problem or something in the
windows environment/configuration of the new computer?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
thanks,
Janet
