If you are new to Solar Fire then you will not have a need to import items from another Solar Fire installation, and you can skip this topic. However if you have owned an earlier version of Solar Fire, and it is still installed on your computer, or if you have a copy of Solar Fire on another disk which is accessible to your computer (via a network or other link), then you may wish to import copies of charts files, other files and Solar Fire settings and Preferences from those other copies of Solar Fire. In many cases this is possible.
The main benefits of this utility are...
•Upon first installation, to allow you to automatically set up Solar Fire in the same way as your previous version of Solar Fire.
•At any later time, to import chart files from Solar Fire on another computer.
Note: Due to the flexibility of Solar Fire in allowing a variety of user-created files and settings and the fact that there are many differences in design of different versions of Solar Fire, this import process may not always be 100% successful in setting up Solar Fire exactly as you would like. You may find after importing settings that you still need to make several adjustments to settings manually.
