Dear Gnucash (GC) Experts,
I was running GC 2.2.9 on an old computer with Windows XP Professional. Now I have a new computer with Windows Vista Home Premium 64 bit.
I have already downloaded and installed 2.2.9 on the Vista 64 computer. It will open without any problems, but I have NOT created ANY accounts or saved ANY files hoping to transfer them from the old computer.
I see from the old XP computer that I can "Export Accounts". But on the new Vista computer "Import" menu, I see a long list of different file types to import, but nothing that says "import accounts" to correspond to the exported accounts from the old system.
Using a removable hard disk between the 2 computers, how can I transfer all the GC data AND configuration settings I have on the old XP computer to the new Vista computer? I am NO programmer and would greatly appreciate details.
Thanks!
Norman
