Best thing I’ve found for moving files around is DropBox. It’s a program that allows you to create a shared folder on any computers you want. Any changes made in the folder on one computer is updated on all the other computers that share that folder. You keep you mod saved in your dropbox and an updated copy will be uploaded to the dropbox on all other computers.

Thumb drive? Upload it somewhere, then download it?

Thanks for the quick reply, i should have been a little more informative. I no-longer have the Laptop and I’m using my desk top now. Im designing the “Door2Door” module and don’t know how to get back into the module to work on it.

The module is on your laptop.

yes, the module was on the Laptop, its been wiped out and is in the process of resetting because of a virus, so i lost the ability to log on vassal. I downloaded some of my art work from gimp on a thumb drive but that was before the virus.I just don’t know how to access the module from my desktop to continue working on it or do I have to start all over with a new name.

VASSAL modules are just files. The module you were working on was a file  
on your laptop, so unless you have a backup, it’s gone.
