My database

I have my database on a zip drive disc and can't seem to be able to
put to onto my new laptop.
Its looking for a MUD file amongst other things.
I am desperate for a fix. Can I send the disc into you for help?

Hello Mike,

Every ACT! 3.0 database has a *.MUD file. Does the Zipdisk include all
the files that make up a database? If it includes only the *.DBF file
you can open it by changing the file type to dbase III-IV. You will
only have contact data.

Do you still get an error if you copy the files (all of them) to the
local drive?
