greets,
first post, wish it wasn't so lame.
mods, move as needed please
This prog was alot of work, I wonder if it will have issues on 64bit,
I did a bit of searching, but found nothing on this topic
hopefully someone has already trudged thru this path and can point me in the right direction
I DL the exe file and ran it (after scanning of course)
it installed fine but throws dialog boxes " C:\ test1\coredata.mdb is not a valid path "
I'm on win 8.1
don't need a bunch of hand holding, but a point in the right direction.
unless it just won't run on 8.1
Thanks!

I'm having the same issue with Vista, also need to know where to put the .xls files after unzipping the download.
Much Obliged,

Unfortunately, the location of the required database files is hardcoded in the application. When you run the installer, it will prompt you that it will install the program into C:\Program Files (x86)\Reloaders Reference. Change this to C:\Test1. This will fix the biggest issue. You will probably get a message box when you execute the program saying "Selected collating sequence.....". This can be ignored.

Thank you Bohica--- I'll give it a try. Do I also put all the downloadable manuals etc. into the same file?

I had some problems too with it. I'm not very computer literate though. Figure, I'll just stick with the hard copy manuals.

Much Obliged Bohica--It works like a champ now. Didn't have to change the permissions either. That was an easy fix.
