[dba-Tech] Vista transfer program

Hi Gary:

Thank you for that. At least I know I am on the right direction. 

Do you know anything about this 'key' that is required/requested when
running the transfer app?

Jim

Yes, I used it to transfer stuff from my XP system to my Vista system.
Worked fine. I did it across my LAN. I think I needed to use a
writable CD to load a program from the Vista system onto the XP
system. It's been 8 months or so since I used it so I don't remember
every detail though. No special cable. Just normal ethernet through
the router. You pick and choose what to transfer. I copied document
folders and Internet favorites mostly. Some other files too I guess.
It worked fine for me.
