I am sure transfering old settings in TC 2007 to TC200 on a  new computer has been disussed many times, but no search string will bring it up.  Do you have a link?

I see the link to backup TC2007 settings, but then unsure how to import to a different computer running TC2000.  If in TC2000 and one clicks on "Import TC2000 v 7" will this ask for a file location?  If so the 2007 backup on  thumb drive or the Worden backup file will work.  Is this correct.

Trying to write instructions for others to make the leap from TC2007 to TC2000 and want it to be clear and accurate.

Thanks

Oddly enough, the most recent question in the Ask a Trainer - TC2000 version 7 forum currently is about this very topic.

importing from version 7

You can't just have the settings backed up. To import the settings from TC2000 version 7 into TC2000 version 12.3, you need to have TC2000 version 7 installed on the computer from which you are going to select Import TC2000 v7 from the menus in TC2000 version 12.3. In addition, the settings need to actually be installed to the TC2000 version 7 installation on that particular machine.

This means if TC2000 version 7 with the appropriate settings is not already installed on the computer, you would need to install TC2000 version 7 and restore the settings the desired settings to TC2000 version 7.

The other option would be to run TC2000 version 12.3 on the computer where TC2000 version 7 and its settings already reside. Keep in mind that you can do this from the browser. You do not need to actually install TC2000 version 12.3 on that computer.

OK thanks.  Just to clearify, assume TC2000 v7 is on computer 1 and TC2000 v 12.3 is on computer 2. 

How can one run TC2000 v 12.3 on computer 1 in the browser?  Do you have to go to the Worden site and select Run Now, or click on v 12.3 icon and choose run in browser?

When one then clicks on Import TC2000 v 7 the import will it be seen on TC2000 v 12.3 running on computer 2?

Does on still have to adjust PCF formulas for volume by multiplying by 100?

Thanks

You would go to the following website on computer 1:

http://www.tc2000.com/

And select Run in Browser. Then you would select File | Import TC2000 v7 from the menus of TC2000 version 12.3 running in the browser.

Most of the settings are actually stored on our server. You should be able to access the imported settings on computer 2, but you may need to restart TC2000 version 12.3 on computer 2.

You need to manually adjust any Personal Criteria Formulas from TC2000 version 7 which require actual volume values to get the same results in TC2000 version 12.3. Formulas was reference volume in blocks of 100 shares in TC2000 version 7 while volume is referenced in actual shares in TC2000 version 12.3.
