Can anybody suggest SV-EN digital (not online) dictionaries that work with Windows 7? Norstedts unfortunately does not.

Du behöver ha Windows 7 Ultimate om du vill ha Nordstedts i din dator. Då kan du köra windows XPs applications i den.

I have Ultimate Feb 3, 2011

I do have Ultimate, but the only reply I get when trying to open the application is 'Illegal function call'. Any ideas how to force it to work? I've tried several tricks with compliance, but no luck.

Sorry. Perhaps you don t speak Swedish

You must have Windows 7 Ultimate if you want to run Windows xp programs in you computer. Install Ultimate and then install your Norstedts.

Regards,

Ricardo

Try running it in XP mode? Mar 29, 2011

Have you tried running it in XP mode?

Right click the .exe file, then choose Properties.

Click on the Compatibility tab.

Choose "Execute this program in Windows XP compatibility mode" (not sure exactly of the title of this, my Windows installation isn't in English).

If this is greyed to begin with, first tick "Run this program as administrator" at the bottom of the window.

Fingers crossed!

Jane
