    unable to change colors in sail chart or sail list

    For some reason, I am unable to change sail colors in sail chart or sail list. I have the newest version of Expedition 11.10.11. When I go to the sail list and change colors (or auto-colour) the colors change but after I press OK they don't update. I have also Expedition (same version) on home laptop and all works how it should. Any suggestions on how to correct it? I have already tried to reinstall (repair) Expedition but it didn't fix the issue.

    Is there a warning message?

    They are saved in the database, default  C:\ProgramData\Expedition\database\Expedition.mdb

    Does Exp have write access to your specified database?

    There's no warning. Yes, Expedition has write access to the database...

    No, it doesn't change the colors after I close and reopen SailChart. If I right click in SailChart and change sail type Expedition remembers that, but then when I try to change colors (under Sail list) it doesn't update. On home laptop all works fine...

    I copied Expedition.mdb from home laptop to boat laptop and that seems to fix the issue...
