Hi Lee, 1) Has the program been working and suddenly stopped or have you just started using it again? 2) Did you install or update any software on your PC just before the program stopped working? 3) Have you tried changing the program properties to use one of the XP compatibility modes? Regards...

Every time I try to start up an old (1995 -1996) invoicing program I get an error message saying the following - Attempt to access invalid address. I then have to click OK to close the box and the program never starts. If I start up in safe mode the program runs fine so I don't think the program is corrupt. I am using windows xp and have run panda antivirus which has found nothing.
