Mark, I really started having a lot of "sqirrely" problems with windows 98 and RB7.1. Mostly screen and form weirdness, can't remember all the problems, but it was enough for me to move all older PCs to XP pro. All the strange behavior went away. The lesson I learned is that even though it worked essentially fine for a short time, as new features were introduced and I started to use more advanced features, more weirdness showed up so that there was no other option for me but to upgrade if I wanted to really depend on it. I have a lot of mission critical apps, and if there was screen or formm problems, I couldn't risk other, unseen issues that I may not recognize immediately. Hope this helps. Bob C

Someone else asked a similar question on the RBG7 list. The answer was yes, there are people running under Win98. If you didn't have any trouble with the evaluation version, you should be fine.
