Do I understand correctly that V6 only works well on Windows XP? I am still on Windows 98SE and before I updated my V5 Delux recently, it worked beautifully. Since that time, there are many things it will not do (like create a PDF file) and I have done hundreds of these in the past. Today I decided to make a GED file on my newer version then exported it to V5 delux on my old computer (which had not been updated). It worked beatifully. Therefore, I have resolved my problem for the time being until I update my computer to Windows XP when I can then purchase V6. Am I understanding this correctly? Any further help would be very much appreciated.
