Hello again!

I'm still using Windows XP, and don't know about what to do when older
programs don't work on newer operating systems. I know that 64-bit
Windows 7 has more compatibility problems than 32-bit versions.

The first thing I would do is to contact BuzzTools themselves. Maybe
they can help, but they'll probably suggest only that you upgrade to the
latest versions, but that's very expensive.

A technical solution would be to change your system to a dual-boot
system able to run Windows 7 OR Windows XP.

I don't know if Microsoft can help, but here's their compatibility site
(nederlands):

http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/windows-7/nl-nl/default.aspx

It's good to hear from you. I assume that you know that Jean died quite
a while ago.

   - Herb
