Lotus Approach from Smartsuite 9.8 - need help

D

David Sherman

All the files in the latest Lotus Smartsuite 9.8 run except for
Approach. Error messge :
"could not find smarticons. Please run install.exe to re-install
Lotus.

Approach works in Windows XP and SBS 2003. The swarticons are on the
hard drive.

I even found the *.smi and re-associated them with Lotus Approach.

Any suggestions besides re-install Lotus.

thanks

Contact the manufacture (Corel now I believe) and see what their plans are
for Vista in the future.
Lotus has always been a bit funny - we have it running on our server as a
DTP product and it's no match for Office to be honest.

I tend to disagree. Lotus Smartsuite works under SBS 2003 and XP. It
should run under Vista unless something in the Vista broke Lotus
Approach.

IBM support has no answer. I expect that there will be a new version
next year.
I agree the Lotus Smartsuite is a dead program with little future.
