Saving info to my FSX Posted Notebook file.
I can use to help someone else.

Spokes2112:
1. Install PlanG on both the XP and the WIN7 (FSX) machines. - Note... They are different versions of PlanG.
2. While FSX is closed run the database creator on the WIN7 (FSX) machine.
3. When database creation is done, "copy" the complete folder - USER\My Documents\Plan-G Files\Data from the WIN7 (FSX) machine and paste it over to the WinXP machine C:Documents and Settings\USER\My Documents\Plan-G Files merging the folder and overwriting all the files.

Thanks to all. :bravo_2:

Everything ok per Spokes2112

QuoteYou need to call the Control Panel and then double click on Users.

Do you mean "open" CP?
Ok I open CP and double click Users. ( been their done that many times) now what?

After 6 data base build tries still no airport icon.
But it now shows on FSX map.

Now the data base is taking a unusual long time to complete.
Had to restart several times.
Now Its stuck on the last little square in Airways for 30 minutes now.

Redundant:
Does FSX have to be running for Nav Data build?

Ok I deleted the scenery data base and let FSX rebuild it.
airport now on FSX map. Now doing a Plan-G data rebuild.

QuoteIf you have no admin rights on a XP system you need to ask the Administrator to give to you such rights. This is done via the user account management.

If you have XP it would be nice if you will me know the exact location of this Administrator.

I didn't say I have NO adim rights.
I have several FSX appson my XP that communicate just fine with the FSX on my Win7.

Thanks:
I noticed that the airport icon is not on FSX map.
For log see attchment

I would if It was in the Plan-G folder!

Hello:
I have tried for 1 to 2 hours a day for several days to get a airport I installed to show on new installed Plan-G map.
Plan-G is on a XP sys and FSX on a Win7 sys. I have several 3 party apps on the XP that communicate just fine with FSX.
For some reason I can't get Plan-G to read the correct "scenery.cfg" (so Im told) so it will show the new airport.
I ran the data base to read from the MAIN FSX folder "scenery.cfg" and nearby default airports show.

Any GOOD advice.

What is yours? :smiley_confused1:

Hello:
New 1st time Plan-Gv3.1.1 install.
Net work from XP-sys to Win7
No problems.
Installed newly uploaded FSX 3rd party airport.
Did a database build.
No new airport icon on map.
Apparently scenery.cfg address wrong.
Pointed setup to main FSX folder/scenery.cfg

Can't set location to: C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX
Folder shared on Win7 and I can see it on XP but cant open, says I need Administrative permission .

The short version how do I get XP  Administrative permission?
I tried to find answer on net but can't find a straight answer.

The Main Win7 FSX folder is shared and accessible on XP.
Thanks.
