Re: ClientAccess scripts don't work in Windows7

["Mark S. Waterbury" <mark.s.waterbury@xxxxxxx>]

Hi, James:

Windows 7 Professional provides an option called "Windows XP Mode" -- 
you have to download a large image of a Windows XP system that runs 
inside a Microsoft Virtual PC virtual machine, but once you set this up, 
you can run applications that are not compatible with Windows 7 "inside" 
this virtual machine, and it all happens seamlessly, so they appear to 
run on your Windows 7 desktop, just like any other applications. Here 
are links to more information:

   http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/
and
   http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-PC/support/requirements.aspx
and
   http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/download.aspx

It might be worth a try for running older versions of IBM Client Access, 
or other "legacy" apps. that you may need to run from time to time.

HTH,

Mark S. Waterbury
