I have two Windows 7 partitions (dual boot) on the same hard drive. One is a 32-bit and the other a 64-bit. For various reasons I would like to make the 64-bit partition my primary partition. The only real use for the 32-bit partition will be for imaging since one of my astro cameras (Meade DSI) does not have a 64-bit driver written for it. I would like to install AP on both partitions and be able to share the common data files (catalogs, image, planning data, observation, etc) between the two installs. Using AP’s “Help>Where Are My Files option you can display where each is installed. I was hoping there was a technique where these locations could be “user defined”.</div><p class="ecxMsoNormal" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; "> </p><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; ">John Switzer</div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; "><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; "><br><br>__________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 4757 (20100109) __________<br><br>The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus.<br><br><a href="http://www.eset.com/">http://www.eset.com</a></span></div></div><br><br>__________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 4757 (20100109) __________<br><br>The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus.<br><br><a href="http://www.eset.com/">http://www.eset.com</a><br><br><hr>Ontdek nu Windows phone.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/nl-nl/default.mspx" target="_new">De smartphone van dit moment</a><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>_______________________________________________<br>APBeta mailing list<br><a href="mailto:APBeta@lists.astroplanner.net">APBeta@lists.astroplanner.net</a><br><a href="http://lists.astroplanner.net/listinfo.cgi/apbeta-astroplanner.net">http://lists.astroplanner.net/listinfo.cgi/apbeta-astroplanner.net</a><br></div></span></blockquote></div><br></body></html>
