Cloning TBM 5 (Baccs 5) from one computer to another and transfer data

Hello folks!

I find myself having to work offsite a lot lately and I would like to clone my (heavily customised) installation of BACCS (TBM) 5 from one computer to another so that I can enter data on either computer in the same way.

I think I have an additional license, or I can just deactivate and reactivate the license as needed.

I was hoping I could backup one installation and restore on the other, but it does not work.

Copying the database across also does not work.

Neither does it work if I "export and import selected" rows from the Dashboard table.

Any idea of what I could do?

Thanks!

Lorenzo
