Not sure about RA, but with Q2 if you have it installed somewhere, you'll be able to copy it across and it'll work fine (The joy of things not tied to the registry). 95 and 98 are the same as far as most programs, especially of that age, are concerned. And I'm not sure how effective the Compatability wizard is. -- Brook's Law: Adding manpower to a late software project makes it later -- http://www.piclist.com#nomail Going offline?
