transferring old BCM files VanS 12/23/2008 8:00:03 PM Hello, I need to transfer my old BCM 2003 data files from an external hard drive (that came off a Win XP Pro system that blew up) to my new desktop with Win Vista Home Premium system. I need to know the names/file extensions and locations of all the old data files. All the documentation I see only says how to backup or export using the functions in OUtlook which is not workable now. Can anyone tell me where I can find this info or how to do so? Thanks, God bless and Merry Christmas
