Dear Alexander Deliyannis.
Yes I am running Windows 7 64 bit! And I will try your suggestion. I’ve tried fiddling with running the program under Windows XP mode in Windows 7 64 bit but that didn’t help.
This could be lifesaver.

If there ever were a real update to this programme I would gladly pay the full registration fee again. I have never understood what this programme did not take off in a big way. I suspect that the automatic hoisting was a problem for some, and an option to do the editing an aerial view, as many users have suggested over the years, might have alleviated this concern. At least until the user became more comfortable with the auto hoisting. Another problem might have been the lack of RTF-type formatting although this never bothered me and should not bother a real wordsmith. Finally, the programme looked very much DOS like in some yahoos might have balked at this, although I thought it was charming. There is no substitute for brainstorm, and I hope, I truly do, that the developer will get going again. If only the 2 brilliant English gentleman could come back and save us.
