I just wanted to say, "Hallelujah!" Right-on, dead-on. In this day and age, Intuit should be strung up from the flagpole for releasing such an application!

I'm still going to give it a shot with RegMon and FileMon to see if I can't figure out how much permissions-loosening is required to trick QuickBooks 2003 into running (I'm not going to send them any more money until they get with the century). I'll follow up if I find anything (probably be a few weeks before I get a round tuit).

Quick question for Susan.

Have you tried to run MS SBA in User mode? I would try it right now but my CDs are at my office and I would need them to install.

Ah - that makes sense, now. ;)
I don't work with financial applications, so I totally spaced on that one...

Thanks for the answer :)

You can't intuit-ively figure it out?

pssst... Quickbooks isn't "designed for XP"

Ok, I give (and I'll probably hate myself for doing so)... what's the major application that's missing from the list?
