: : I recently bought a new computer, downloaded FM 4.5, and uploaded my saved dat : : files into the new program. It appears that I botched the initial file upload- : : my three individual mutual fund dat files are each appearing as individual : : portfolios (but with dat file extensions). I cannot open each file individually- : : they stack on top of each other when opened, rather than three individual graphs : : on the screen. Is there some way to clean up the mess I created? : Hi Jim, : : Did you have any portfolio (mm4) files that you transferred, or just : investment (dat) files? Where are the dat files appearing as portfolios? : What do you mean by they stack on top of each other? : You should always be able to at least go back to "File/Open Investment(s)..." : and open up your *.dat investment files. : Thanks, : Mark : -- : Mark Beiley : : Fund Manager for Windows 3.1x/95/98/NT : : Mark, It appears that my dat files are behaving like mm4 files. I have three mutual fund files (dat files), that, when opened sequentially (File-Open Investment), are visible on the upper left part of the screen but stacked on top of each other (even with the view "4" function selected- I can only see one at a time). Each graph is titled "Portfolio Gain-H" in the case of the Gain graph. If I select "close top investment", the top graph is closed, and the next investment file/graph remains underneath it. I cannot open the three dat files and see them all as separate graphs. Is it possible that when I first set up FM 4.5 and uploaded my three dat files they were imported as porfolio files? There are no mm4 files in Autobak or My_Data folders right now, and I don't believe I uploaded any mm4's in the process of conversion to FM 4.5. I do have the original dat files on floppy disks, so I may retrace my steps and reinstall/import the original dat files and see what that does, unless you have any other suggestions. Thanks
