The registry key used by TB is [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\RIT\The Bat!] in both Win98 and Win2k, but the export from Win2k regedit would start with the following line: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 which makes the regedit in Win98 to reject it, for the latter is version 4. I've no idea what changes have been made to the exported .reg file format, most likely a new data type or two that Win98 registry (or regedit) doesn't support. There's nothing of this sort (AFAIK) under the [...\The Bat!] key, so you should be able to import it after replacing the "... 5.00" line and replace it with "REGEDIT4". I haven't tried it, though. (It's always a good idea to backup the registry before messing with it.) -- Best regards, Ming-Li The Bat! 1.46 Beta/5 | Win2k SP1 -- -- View the TBUDL archive at http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com To send a message to the list moderation team double click here: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe from TBUDL, double click here and send the message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi David, On 06 September 2000 at 19:57:24 GMT -0700 (which was 03:57 where I live) David Tod Sigafoos wrote and made these points on the subject of "Sharing between desktop and laptop": DTS So .. how do I share data? My desktop is a w2k system. The laptop DTS is a win98. It is likely that there is a difference in registry structure between W2k and W9x. You will have to export from both and compare the resultant .reg files (which are usually plain text). With moderator's hat on now, it is not good form on these lists to 'Reply' when creating a new topic. It messes up threading. If you feel you have to then make sure you remove the References and In-reply-To headers (although it is quicker to use "New" in the first place). - -- Cheers, .\\arck Marck D.

Sharing between desktop and laptop
Last week I asked about sharing data between TB on my desktop and my laptop. I was told to simply export TB from the registry and import into the laptop. SO I went to my office machine, Start/Run/Regedit and did the export. Then I copied the file to my laptop and Start/Run/Regedit and import. Selected the file and POW!!! i was told it wasnt are real registry file. Imagine my surprise after so many said it was so simple. So .. how do I share data? My desktop is a w2k system. The laptop is a win98. if anyone from tb is there maybe they could chime in. tia DSig -- -- View the TBUDL archive at http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com To send a message to the list moderation team double click here: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe from TBUDL, double click here and send the message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org
