It is some time since I entered all my information into v2.3 and have done little since. I have some new information I would like to enter and would like to upgrade to v5, but... will I be able to copy the information from v2.3 (which is on an XP computer) and enter it onto v5 on my new Windows7 computer? Grateful for any help and/or clarification.

When it comes to moving from your old XP PC to a new Win 7 PC I advise using Windows Easy Transfer.
