Unsure if anyone remembers Windows 3.1, but if you do, I'm looking for a program very similar to "Cardfile" which will run on XP/Vista or Linux.
It has to look and feel similar to the origional. Any idea's would be much appreceated.
Thx,

I just found this, not sure if it's what you're after?

thats a blast from the past!!!!

it was still on the win98 CD (though not installed!!) and the win98 version of it will work on XP...

So if you know anyone (or have yourself) and old win98 cd it is possible to get the file off the CD and use that.....

It's not an entirely straight forward thing to do though!
I really need to read before posting!!!

Question Author
ChuckFickins,
I have a copy of Win98, but can't seem to find it. Do I need to install it on something in order to extract it?
The reason I want it is because i'm trying to bring a 92 year old up to date, and want to buy him a netbook so he dosn't keep having wires connected. The only reason he won't change is because of his precious Cardfile.
Thx

Well!! I didn't realise it was that easy. I just copied c:\windows\cardfile.exe from the old pc to a floppy using the dos window, and loaded it into my netbook and Horray! it works.
Thanks for the pointer ChuckFickens.
