How to re-install the software, and then transfer the models into the new installation

How to re-install

 

This assumes that the existing location will be the same after the re-install.

Visual Cash Focus example (other software is similar):

  1. If Visual Cash Focus is installed in C:\VCF8, then rename this folder. E.g rename to C:\VCF8_old.
  2. Install the software from the CD or setup program that was supplied initially.
  3. Start the software and register as normal. Close the software.
  4. Copy the models: copy all the folders under C:\VCF8_old\Models to C:\VCF8\Models
  5. In C:\VCF8_old\Data there are 3 files that are called Model, namely model.dbf, model.fpt, model.cdx. Copy these three files into C:\VCF8\Data.
  6. Start the software.
  7. Open a model and get to the map.
  8. Run the option: Check shared tables. It is under the Utilities menu, under Technical utilities.
