Hi Rick,

Do I understand you're trying to get PFROI running under Windows XP, so
that you can export from it, and then import into Fund Manager? You might
check with the makers of PFROI (that isn't our product of course...) to
see if they have any suggestions for getting it to run.

Here's one thing you could try... Go to the properties of the executable
for PFROI, and under the "Compatibility" tab, you might try changing it to
run in "Compatibility Mode" for Windows 95, that may give it a better chance
of working, but I really am just guessing here... I guess you no longer
have access to the old PC where you used to run PFROI?

Thanks,
Mark
