Howard,
Have you made this work? Going back a number of years, several of us
on this list fount that the program would either not work properly, or
just plain crash starting with later versions/updates of XP. In my
case, it seemed to fail after XP servvice pack 2, or some windows
update that came in around that time.
While the main pc here is Win 7, I do have an XP for backup, and even an
old 98 kicking around. If you've got it working on XP SP3, I'll look
at it again.
