[Mgs] Beware Heritage Trust Manuals on CD PART II

[Jack Feldman]

David,

Thanks for the offer, but it won't work. Here is the reply from the
manufacturer. I am not happy to get a product that won't work on my
computer. Note they were only concerned about Vista, not requiring us to
have a three generation old program on our computer.

Hello-  Hopefully the following will help with running the CD more
smoothly.

System requirements for CDs are:

Windows XP and 2000 - not Vista. Vista solution in the form of new CDs
coming later in  2009. There will be no solution for older versions...these
are
not Vista compatible.

Acrobat 6.0 and 7.0 - not 5.0, 8.0 or 9.0. Solution is to download 6.0 off
the CD or from Adobe.com.


Best Regards,

Ellen
