Same OS, but new machine. Want to be able to use forms/reports I had created.
Copy them from the old machine to the new one; perhaps you could use a memory stick ?
This depends on your setup.
.
Forms and reports inside a .odb should not be affected by moving the database to a new server, if you use a registered database. All you need to do is editing/replacing the registered datasource.
.
If you use jdbc or odbc-drivers you have to edit/re-create the connections.
.
In both cases names have to match to the letter the previous setup. (I interpreted your “moved to new server” as moving a remote database server.)
.
There is also “exchange database” available in the menu, if you prefer new names for the database:

PS: Keep backups of the original.odb-files or separate forms. If you play around with settings without success, it is often easier to start again than finding every place where one edited…
For registered databases etc: Also save your user-profile.

Thanks. I was able to change the connection by editing the odb file. Many thanks.
