Thank you!  That will probably work as I really do not need to open up last year's FAM.  Like you say, all I really need is to download current year FAM and when it asks me to transfer last year's data to this year, I can put a copy of last year's client data folder on a flash drive and point to the flash drive location as the data source for the transfer of last year's ending data to the current year's beginning data.

However, I sure wish there was more documentation on doing a complete installation of last year's entire FAM program on a new computer in the event the old computer breaks down because sometimes I want to open up last year's FAM program on a working computer so I can see what I did last year.  Fortunately I printed out an old article on this from 2012 that no longer exists in the support system but I have file notes indicating that back in 2012 when I did that, FAM would not activate on the new computer without calling customer support and going through a hassle.
