    Hi All,

    I run P5 locally as well as through server.

    The local copy runs through a MSSQL server which is set up on my hard drive. I would give you more details but unfortunately our IT department locks us out from finding useful system info!

    Hope this helps though.

    You can install P5 locally into your laptop without the need of installing Oracle.
    As Matt said u can run P5 using the MSQL server (which will be installed automatically), after that u can import/export or backup the database easily by going to: Start-->All Programs-->Microsoft SQL Server--> Enterprise Manager, then select your database and click on Import/Export or Backup/Restore.

    HTH.

    Or u can simply export the schedules from the P5 itself using file--> export.
