Re: how to copy Client Access macros etc. from old PC to new PC

There is an import profile in session manager on windows7. I don't see an
import function for like keyboard mapping files. You might have to spend
some time cross referencing the folder locations from XP to 7 and then
copy/paste them into the correct folder locations. Do one of them and test
one of the sessions out to see how they work. The same question might
apply going from iseries access to ACS(like on WIN10).

Hi,

I have a client who has an older version of Client Access 32-bit installed
under Windows XP ... now they are trying to migrate to a newer version of
IBM Client Access under Windows 7 64-bit ...

How can they copy all of their "macros" and configuration files, e.g.:

.ws workstation emulator profiles
.bch emulator batch files
.kmp keyboard maps
..pmp poppad files

etc. from the old PC to the new PC, so they will "work" with Client
Access on that machine?

It seems these files have embedded "path names" that reflect the old
directory structure under e.g. c:\Program Files and now the Client Access
software appears to get installed under "C:\Program files (x86)" and that
seems to invalidate those internally stored path names.

Does Client Access provide some kind of EXPORT and IMPORT capability or
some other method to copy all of these files and at the same time convert
any internally stored path names so they will "work" properly on the new
system?

Please advise.

Thanks in advance.
