641740 2008-02-18 18:45:00 might be time to upgrade. current version is 17 and myob are ceasing support for anything under 15 wotz (335)
641741 2008-02-18 18:52:00 If you don't want to spend cash on a new MYOB, there's a free slightly older version of Cashbook complete on the CD with the Feb issue of PCWorld. I would assume it's installable on XP given that PCWorld wouldn't give away anything that's completely obsolete. :rolleyes: Greg (193)
641742 2008-02-18 19:06:00 There is a patch (support.microsoft.com)

So some / not all programs will work with x32 and x64 versions of Vista.

However, MYOB isnt one of them.

I see OL 2003 is on this list.

Probably why people who use this on Vista, have probs.

Have you tried using the Programme Compatibility Wizard? I have programmes running in Vista that, without the Programme Compatibility Wizard, would not work. Possible answer?
