Combining 2 databases

[OK2ThePrism]

I had my original database that I created wehn I first ran HEM.

Then I started a new one.

Now I want to combine the two into one larger database - how can I do that ?

Thanks

Follow ONLY the 1st step in this FAQ to export the HH from the original database http://208.109.95.123/faq/afmviewfaq.aspx?faqid=12

then open the new database and choose import from folder and import the files you just exported

Thank you.

nb - as a guide, how large can a database reasonably get before there are database or performance issues ?

[morny]

As the database grows the import speeds will decrease slightly but you should still have good performance and people are running 15 million HH + without problems

OK ! I should be alright for a few centuries then, thanks vm.

if i import both my databases using this method. Will HEM know that I want them both combined and not have two separate DB's?

Also, I currently use XP and I am going to start using Vista. Are there any differences in how I have you use Vista compared to using HEM on XP?

Thank you in advance.

When you import thing in HM, all you import will be inserted in the DB that HM is currently using.

You have to do some tricks with Vista if there is some trouble. With XP, there is generally very few troubles. But, don't worry, the Support as almost every answere about how to configure HM with Vista. If you have trouble, just ask your question on this forum.

how do I disable UAC in control panel?

ok I fond this http://208.109.95.123/faq/afmviewfaq.aspx?faqid=73

under the manage account I dont have the option to change security features; is this because I have already disabled UAC?

For some reason the 2nd database is not importing? There are errors (159) but the first database had 133 errors and imported fine?

I am using the trial version fwiw. How do I change the shortcut to the holdem manager spade icon?
