Can I copy the vendors over to a new ompany file? How do I do it?

Yes, you can.

Export your vendor list to an IIF file and then import that IIF file into the new company file:

1. Export by starting at File | Utilities | Export | Lists to IIF files...

2. Import the resulting file at File | Utilities | Import | IIF files...
