Using the GLOBAL.MPT File

How do I copy my GLOBAL.MPT file to a disk so that I can share it with someone else?

GLOBAL.MPT might be located in several locations on your hard drive, depending on which operating system your computer is using. You can easily locate both the original GLOBAL.MPT backup file and the active GLOBAL.MPT file, along with any custom objects that have been copied to it, by using the Microsoft Windows Search feature, which you access by selecting Start, Search, For Files or Folders. It is important that you check the date on which each file was last modified to ensure that you copy the correct one (the original, backup copy is the oldest GLOBAL.MPT file).
