I use Reunion 7, as a classic (OS 9) application, though I'm basically using OS 10.3. I would expect that the same would be possible for version 5. Out of curiosity I have just checked with Leister's web-site, where I read: >When you buy Reunion 8, you receive one CD with Reunion for OS X and >Reunion for OS 8.5 to 9.2. That's right, two different applications, >virtually identical in functionality, but each one optimized and >designed for its native OS Cheers Brian Randell PS I concur with Tim's praise for Reunion - though in actual fact I also use the rather creaky LDS Personal Ancestral File. (For security purposes I like to have not just multiple copies of my database but also multiple versions.)

Couldn't agree more. Our business uses three Macs, two of which are up to 10.3.8 BUT there is no way that I am going to OSX this one! It's replacement will be another G5, but I have seen the chaos that can be let loose when sticking OS10 onto an OS9 system. Took us weeks to unravel the mess. ---- Peter Amsden, Argyll, Scotland ASAT Productions: http://www.asat.biz Researching Amsden World Wide Outline History: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~amsden Books I have written: http://www.btinternet.com/~amsden AllExperts: http://www.allexperts.com/displayExpert.asp?Expert=38044 Never dump originals - they may be all that is left after the computer age.
