And why not
c:\programs ?
- After installing Swisslog, restore your reports and QSL to the corresponding folder in C:\Program Files\Swisslog\Reports
OK, done
- Restore you v4 database SWLOG.MDB to C:\Program Files\Swisslog\DB and manually delete the SWLOG_V5.MDB
ok, done
- Run Swisslog and go to File | Open logbook-DB. Select the SWLOG.MDB. The conversion process will start and the new database will be SWLOG_V5.MDB
ok, done
- Register your Swisslog copy.
ok, done. Later, but done.
Now you should use Swisslog normally.

Tell me please if there some infos has been cancelled (the requester), if too, I will generate a new "SWLOG_V5.MDB".
