* PCLaw Plus is compatible with Windows Vista 32-bit. It is important to note that compatibility may require manipulation of certain Vista settings. Compatibility issues can arise in a networked environment of Vista workstations if the data file resides on a Vista computer. This Vista issue affects many database programs, not just PCLaw Plus. Microsoft has released a special fix: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/935366/en-us however please contact your IT consultant before implementing.

** Note - PCLaw Plus is a windows-based application; Citrix, Linux and Mac operating systems are not tested or supported. PCLaw Plus is not developed to run on Windows 98, ME or NT operating systems as these are no longer supported by Microsoft®.
