Running older programs

Hi everyone,

A while ago I read an article in a computer magazine where you can set up Vista to run older programs with out having to go into its properties and telling it to run in Windows XP.

I cannot find the article or even what magazine it was in, has anyone any idea how to do it.

thanks

Hi Everyone,

I have found it in Computing Made Easy Issue 125.

You need to access the Vistas Program compatability Wizard after installing the application.

Start>Control Panel>Programs>Use an older program with this version of Windows.

Hope it helps anyone with the same problem.

thanks
