Dear all,
Thanks for all the -useful- suggestions. I will look them all up and try
them. About the comments using Outlook (I liked the comments :-) anyway but,
as Ike wrote, the integration of the database management is better and
Firefox as well as Explorer are many times ''more up to date'' with latest
Internet developments. And, our Dutch multi user accounting sofware uses the
PC network.
Just to be ''extra compatible'' I bought Xara and later on Xara Xtreme which
I find both less ''nice'' than Artworks.
But Adobe's Acrobat is a fantastic piece of software and many files I
convert with RiScript are improved with it... To avoid using what we used to
call an ''Adidas network'' I liked to know of possibilities to see the RISC
OS hardware from my PC.
Don't get me wrong, I've been selling Acorn products since 1982 and was the
Acorn distributor for Holland from 1987 to 1989 and from 1993 until it all
ended. I'm back to my old trade now -but at least with products that came
originally from Cambridge :-) -see my website.
Vr. gr.,

I use RISC OS (RISC PC & Iyonix) for all my publishing work but have to
mail my dealers -with PDF-files- from the PC with, I hat to admit,
Outlook..
I can think of no reason on earth why you would need to do this. Any RISC
OS email program is more than capable of sending a PDF file. Even if you
did need to use the PC, there is no excuse for using the abortion that is
Outlook when Gemini (Messenger Pro for Windows and Mac) is available.
Well I can imagine some, like integration of the Outlook address
database with the clients-list in your book-keeping software or/and
customer relations software, which just aren't available for RISC OS.
I too use RISC OS for most of my bussiness task, but for some tasks I
really do have to revert to Windows, which I don' t regret at all; use
the tool most fitted I would suggest.
But RISC OS has no Mindmapping software, no integrated bussiness
administration software and so on...
BTW I might be off topic here
Cheers
Ike
