RE: Pimlical with Windows 7

Wow, Barbara, thanks.  You explained it very well and I feel confident that
I can do this.  I decided to wait till next week to start this whole
process, but I'm trying to think it thru NOW.

Well, not necessarily. You will need [or at least it will be easier for 
you] to install Pimlical on to your husband's computer and make sure it 
has read the information from your Treo.

Then you would do something in Pimlical called "Backup Everything" and 
save that folder somewhere. You can easily put it on a flash drive.

Next step would be to do a fresh install of Pimlical on to your Windows 
7 laptop. If you are using the same user name there should not be any 
problem in doing this, either using the same registration code or using 
"unregistered" version on the XP computer.

Then use "restore everything" and you should see all of your data in 
Pimlical on the Windows 7 laptop.

Once you are sure that you have everything the way you want it in 
Pimlical on your Windows 7 computer you could remove all from your 
husband's computer, or better, zip it up and save it.

NOW that you have Pimlical on the Windows 7 computer is the time to 
start playing with the preferences, learn how it works, set it up to 
work with Google calendar etc.
