Question: What are your system recommendations? |

Answer: All
of our software products will run under Windows 98
(2nd edition), NT (sp4), 2000, XP, 2005 and Vista. We recommended Windows 2000, XP
Professional Edition or 2005 (see OS details). In
addition, they require the Microsoft
Database Engine (MDSE) (provided
with the software) or
Microsoft SQL Server 7.0 or higher as the database engine.
