OBJECTIVE: Restore an Act!2007 database onto a different computer.
Hardware/software:
OLD- Dell PC with Win XP home edition and Act! 2007 for Workgroups.
NEW- Macbook with Bootcamp/ Win XP Pro
I created a database backup on the Dell backup and restore to another computer and put the file on my
FTP. I did not select password protect. (The DB does have a password to open it.)
I installed ACT! 2007 from original disks on the new laptop. I can create a new DB and program works fine. I select restore DB and get this error:
System.NullReferenceExcept
ion: Object reference not set to an instance of an object at C1.C1zip.C1ZipFile.Open(st
ringFileNa
me) at Act.UI.DatabaseMaintenance
Dialogs.Re
storeDialo
g.Validate

I read about some instance errors elsewhere, but have not seen a workable solution.
