Manny,
Please check your email of December 20, 2006. I have answered all of your questions in that email.

You need access to that machine from the outside. The NV2 server machine would have to have another external IP address that you can connect directly or user name / IP address that you can connect through a listening server.

The user can post a payment after the edit date and reconcile the open items prior to the users Transaction Edit Begin Date. I blocked the entries in Journal > Bank > Deposit > Bank Deposits and in the details screen I right mouse clicked Tools > Apply Deposits.

No NV1 will not work on Windows Vista. Microsoft has stopped supporting 16 bit DOS applications.

I would correct the mismatching account types in NV1. Run ATYPE on posting accounts and TATYPE on total accounts. You do not need to run both. Once done, run NVEXPORT again.
They are correct if your Balance Sheet and Income Statement balance with your NV1 books. The errors and warnings are there for you to review and to correct if there are out of balances on a daily basis and if there is a mismatch in references numbers and suspicious dates. If you are in balance and are happy with the results then you can move forward.
No, you are not missing anything. The journals used in NV1 were placed in Journal > General > DOS NewViews Import > Journal Accounts for historical purposes. If you wish to use them, you can. I suggest that you use the NV2 journals instead.

In 2.08 you must change it each time. A table for chosing different addresses for a customer will be introduced in a later version of NV2. Not sure if it will be in 2.09 or 2.10.
NV2 version 2.09 is scheduled for release in the middle of January 2007.
You could for now set the destination of the invoice to display and alter the address in the excel spreadsheet and then print thus leaving the current NV2 information unchanged.

The warnings in regards to normal balances are alerting you that you may have ATYPE’d a credit normal balance account as an expense or debit normal balance account as a revenue (these are examples). These are warnings which do not prevent you from importing into NV2. If the imported accounts are correct and appear in the correct folder under NewViews > Account > Account Type, then they are correct.
The errors in regards to journal entries being out of balance is probably looking at the reference number of the entries and is trying to match the in and out entries together. If the journal indicated in dicated in the errors (displayed on the notes view of NVEXPORT) do not conform to reference matchig then you can move the particular journal off of the journal report (the journal chosen from the NVEXPORT procedure) to an report called NOTJR. Run NVEXPORT again and you will see the error numbers diminish. If none of the journals in the journal report chosen in the procedure NVEXPORT confirm to reference match then you can leave Journal report blank in NVEXPORT and run it again. See the help in the NV2 manual > Appendix C > Converting NV1 to NV2 > Exporting NV1 Data > Journals & Journal Entries for more information.
To verify that you have an accurate conversion, I would review the Income Statements and Balance Sheets from NV1 with NV2.
The Tree Explorer on the left is set to the order it is in. The sub reports within NewViews > Reports are arranged in description order. You can alter this by changing the descriptions under Sub Reports (window select).

Look under NewViews > Report to view your NV1 reports from your home document. Click on the report to view and then when the window is setup, window select ( the drop down arrow on the top left hand corner of the top right window > Single Report).
You can enter you data under Reports, Journals, and Accounts. See the NewViews 2.08 Manual under Accounting > Accounts Payable to learn about entering AP Invoices, Accounts etc. Also review Report and its sub-folders.

Insert a blank CD in CD ROM drive and click on the My Computer Icon on your desktop and navagate to your C drive, double click on your NV folder. You should see the a folder that pertains to the name of your books. Right mouse click on the folder and click copy. Navagate to your CD rom drive and on the white back ground representing the drive contents roght mouse click paste. A copy of the folder from your NV folder will appear. Click File > Burn. You will now have a backup on your CD.
If you cannot get the sharing to work on your system then try one of the third party printing programs mentioned above.

Run NewViews and cursor down to Options and press enter. Press enter on Diskette drive which by default comes with A: – change it to your CD ROM drive and press enter. This will work if you have a program installed on your system called Direct CD which writes files to a CD using backup books.
If you do not have this program or can not find it. You can still backup your books to a CD-R or CD-RW CD by using windows explorer on your system. Open windows explorer and copy the books folder (right mouse click copy) and then navigate to the CD ROM drive and right mouse click Paste. CLick File > Burn to begin burning the backup to the CD.
As for printing, ensure that your printer can print from DOS and it is connected via a parallel cable (connected to LPT1). If it is connected via a USB port and or the printer is windows only you can try to create a share name for printer icon on your system by clicking the sharing tab under your windows start button > printers and faxes > your printer and right mouse click properties. WHen the properties window appears, click the sharing tab and share the printer and specify a share name. For example HP1200 might be a share name you could enter.
Once done, open a command prompt (windows start > All Programs > Accessories) on your system and enter the following and press enter:
net use LPT1 \computer nameHP1200 /PERSISTENT:YES
The command must return successful if your are going to use LPT1 as file name in your Print Options (/PO). Note, computer name above can be obtained by right mouse clicking on your My Computer Icon on your desktop and clicking properties.
There are third party printing programs available if you are unable to get the sharing to work on your system. Below is a list from which you can choose from and you can also search the web for others.

Below are links to some programs that were written to combat the recent issues with Windows only and USB printers not printing from MS-DOS programs. These programs are not written or supported by Q.W. Page Associates. We are providing these links ONLY as a service to our NewViews users who have a printer that will not understand MS-DOS print jobs.

Yes. This will be possible with NV2. It is on the list of the coming features to NV2 (see the NewViews 2.08 Manual > Appendix A > What’s Coming > Mail-Merge and E-mail).
It will not be introduced in the next updated version with is 2.09 but should be ready in early 2007.
For now, you can Print Invoices and set the destination to a file and then email that file as an attachment.

No. Post your adjusting entries to one or more of the accounts that total to this total account or create some adjustment account that then totals to this total account.
