darn it !!! Thought I was going to have quite a task ahead of me, if I was going to jump ship to Linux, which I will be, sooner or later. Love it.Įxperimenting, went to my boot drive, found windows, users, etc, and tried to open some Lotus 123 spreadsheets. Recently I've been experimenting with Linux Mint 17.2 - presently running it off a USB flash drive, on trail.

Every new machine I get, I install Lotus 123 - a message comes up saying 'Approach has known compatibility issues' or something like that, so I always install manually - as I'm only interested in Spreadsheets and Wordpro Documents - I find both these to be clean, crisp, and great to use. I have many hundreds of 123 spreadsheets. That should leave all your personal files intact, but be sure to clone first (use Macrium Reflect Free version 6).Įdited by brainout, 11 August 2015 - 04:09 PM. So get out your SmartSuite 9.8 disks, and select Repair/reinstall. Reason? To vet the Windows installation you have, and wipe it out ( the new Win10 license is much worse than the old one with Win7, see that link's video description for details).

Problem is, the Windows 10 installer won't allow a true clean install until after you've installed it (lol what convoluted design that is).

All the techies know this, the problem goes all the way back to Windows 95.

Windows just flat can't handle an inplace update atop earlier Windows unless all the third party programs are within about two years of the new Windows, and are MS programs. They need to be uninstalled first (usually your personal files are kept, the uninstaller doesn't touch them), and then the program needs to be reinstalled AFTER the update of the Windows OS. Some kind of layering: like a copy of a copy of a copy of a graphic image, even for many of their ported-over menus from Windows 7.Įdited by brainout, 25 July 2015 - 02:19 PM.īDH_222, the reason you can't get it to open is that you installed on top of Windows 7, right? Older programs never work after that. You might wonder why the Windows DOS screen looks so bad.

You'll figure it out: If not, just let me know.

look in your username\AppData\Local\Dosbox for the Dosbox-0.74.conf file: it includes instructions on how to alter the configurations in that file.I'm assuming you already right-clicked on Properties for your 123.exe to size the window via Fonts, and specified the expanded memory, right?ĭOSbox' own configuration file specs, also depend on the size of the window you want (search on my name, there, for details) - and, on the speed of calculation you want.

If you use a batch file in root, you'll need to copy that to the root of Win10, too. So download and install DOSbox, plus copy your LOTUS and 123 folders to the same places they are on your current Windows. Had to use DOSbox, and the same DOSbox works just fine in 64-bit Windows 10. I couldn't get it to work in 8.1, 32-bit. What kind of calculations do you use it for the most? Most US Government agencies still want wk1 format, too. DOS Lotus 1-2-3 version 2.x is core to my business.
