604102 2007-10-22 06:47:00 It seems MS no longer supports Greetings on XP i.e. it won't go.
Any suggestions for a replacement progam that is simple to use and inexpensive please ?

604104 2007-10-22 06:54:00 Wow, looks like it is an old software that even Google can't provide me with a good result:

This is the problem we have... my parents use it and we now have to look for an alternative. The fixes described do not help.

604106 2007-10-22 07:54:00 Use something like Publisher / part of MS office. If you've got it. Speedy Gonzales (78)
604107 2007-10-22 07:56:00 yep that is an option. Just interested too see what else is out there for the novice user. cowboy stu (7021)
604108 2007-10-22 07:58:00 There's not much to do in Publisher. As most of them are templates.

Just load whatever fill in the blanks and print.

Even a 10 yr old could do it!

604110 2007-10-22 08:09:00 You could certainly try out Microsoft Publisher, which you can get it cheaper if you go for Office 2003 edition rather than Office 2007's.

Cheers :)

Have you tried uninstalling Greetings (restart the computer after you done that) & reinstalling it?


And what exactly is greetings?

Basically its a program that lets you to design all sort of greeting cards like birthday cards/Invitations, xmas cards etc...


Wow, looks like it is an old software that even Google can't provide me with a good result:

www.amazon.com

Yeath, its about 5 years old now aprox, & Microsoft has removed almost all traces of it from there websites....


yep that is an option. Just interested too see what else is out there for the novice user.

I think there is somthing out there to replace Microsoft Greetings, but I cant remember the name of it :blush:
