TRAVERSE Accounting Software
compatibility with Windows Vista &
Microsoft Office 2007

Date: February 5, 2007 - Products: TRAVERSE 10.2

Microsoft has now made available to the public the Vista release of Windows
and the Office 2007 productivity suite. This document outlines the compatibility of
Open Systems' software with these products.

Windows Vista (Business and Ultimate editions)
There are no known issues running the TRAVERSE client software on a
workstation with the Windows Vista operating system. If the server
software is installed on a Windows Vista workstation, it must use the SQL Server 2005 or SQL Server 2005 Express database. Microsoft does NOT support SQL Server 2000 (or MSDE) running on the Windows Vista operating system.

Office 2007
There are no known issues with the TRAVERSE Add-In for Excel or the
productivity reports when used with Excel 2007. TRAVERSE will NOT run using Access 2007 or
the Access 2007 Runtime version. You must install either the Access 2003 Runtime
supplied with the TRAVERSE software (we’ve tried this
option in the office and it works fine!) or a licensed full copy of Access 2003. 
Access 2003 (licensed or runtime) can be
installed or remain installed on a workstation that has Office 2007 components.
