What happens when you try to open one of the databases?

Did you have to convert old K&K .TRE files for this upgrade?

What version of Kith and Kin were you running before?

How did you transfer the databases to your new PC?

The Install was new, no other versions of Kith and Kin was on my computer. The disk I used, I recieved was from Spansoft. The disk contained 'Kith And Kin Pro Version 2.02' Serial number KKP2020644. As I have said before this disk was purchased as upgrade for ' Kith And Kin' Version 3.11. This version was not installed on my computer at the time. Should I install 3.11 version then install upgrade?
Thank You for your swift reply.
sincerly
Norman Gray

You do not need to install the old Kith and Kin.

You do need to copy your old .TRE files onto the new PC (store them anywhere) and then use "Start | Programs | Kith and Kin Pro | File conversion (V3.1x)". This will allow you to create new K&KPro databases using the existing data from your old .TRE files.
