I've just installed and registered DBPro on my new laptop running Vista.

When I press EXE, I get an error message saying its unable to create the file.

Any idea what the problem is?

sounds like Vista's UAC in action and you'd do well to visit the vista compatability thread here. basically, you'll want to run dbpro as an Admin or install DBPro outside of the Programs folder.

personally, i installed to the (x86)programs folder and then set the entire TGC folder security settings to "full access" so anything inside the tgc folder would run without a hitch.

good luck
