Well I found the data the kind folks at NCH had placed Express Invoice files in the Shared Folder, I can't recall having made a Sharing Decision on install Key Principle= Secure by Default, not Share by Default!! Again, can't complain too much as for this part of the software it is free. However it leaves me less likely to upgrade if the security stance is not right on the Free part of the software. So to recap HD/Users/Shared/Library/Application Support/NCH Software Moving to another platform appears to trigger a re-install so I suspect there is a Prefs file I haven't tracked down.

I have searched and searched. Have found the location for HourGuard and Express Accounts, both different! But nada on the search for Express Invoice Data Reason I am moving platforms and want the data to come with me...!!

Yee Gads, I suspect folks are simply giving the pat answer that works for other NCH & Mac Apps. As has been written elsewhere in this Forum apparently there is No Help File None has been written! I just wish the folks at NCH would fix their web site so that people don't keep getting caught in the loop searching for it These two statements don't get you anywhere with HourGuard Help File See FAQ's on Web site The Help manual, accessed from within the program Not that one should complain for the price is certainly right, and the product works like a charm!!

I have found where the Hour Guard Files are stored on a Mac HD/Users/"Username"/Library/Application Support/HourGuard/ In this folder are: Options.dat Tasks Folder Accounts Folder Timesheets Folder However the Timesheets Folder holds a neat trap for the unwary, as the .csv timesheets are stored in another folder called "Username" So if you copy the HourGuard data folder from one Mac to another with the same "Username" you are fine, but change the "Username" and the Timesheets will disappear from view Simple Fix Create a Folder with your new "Username" and copy your files into it. Delete old "Username" folder It worked for me As usual Close the Application before messing with its innards and Back Up all data before toying with it.

As written elsewhere No Help File has been developed for this package.
