I have happily used Quattro Pro in Win 98SE for as long as I could, but
have upgraded to XP SP2 now.
QP 7.0.2.14 isn't working correctly in XP....
Are there "tweaks" that I can do to use it, or is it too old ?

Right-click on the shortcut you use to launch QP, go to the
Compatibility tab, and set the compatibility mode to Windows 98. Not
sure if this will fix your problem, but it's worth a try.
Cheers,

Someone suggested that to me....
No, it doesn't solve the problem.

I'm using QPW ver 7.0.2.14 with Win xp service pack 2. I ran the
compatibility. There are still some bugs, but for the most part my
spreadsheets and formulas still work. Can't run the spell check. Also, I
can not use the send to. I save the files to my key under explorer. We use
WIN XP on 2 computers and 1 with WIN 2000. Give me back WIN 2000.
EVERYTHING worked! I am afraid to upgrade to Vista., and I don't like the
other versions on QPW. hope this helps.
