Ok , so I have a new laptop and now I must setup all those customs colors again, default font;s and my DB connections. Can someone tell me what file(s) these are stored so I can copy them to my new laptop. 

 

Thanks in advance, Richard

The database profiles can be exported through the normal PB GUI (right click the ODB entry, and Export Profiles). If you have issues importing into the new machine, you can also export the registry directly (I just copied PB17 db profiles to PB19 this morning).

Registry location for database profiles:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Sybase\Powerbuilder\19.0\DatabaseProfiles\Powerbuilder

PB.INI location for settings & colors:
C:\Users\[your username here]\Appdata\Local\Appeon\Powerbuilder 19.0\pb.ini

In case you have customized location of the PB.INI, you can find it using

PB IDE > Main menu > Tools > System Options > Tab = General > Field = Initialization Path

In that folder, you will find file = PB.INI

In that file search for section = [colors]
