Re: [NTLK] Now Up-to-Date and NCU

I have been using Now Synchronize (2.1) with Now Contact/Now Up-To-Date ever
since I got my MP2100 - 1997.

It works well with Now Contact/Now Up-To-Date, through 3.9.

It is not compatible with Now Contact/Now Up-To-Date 4.0, and
PowerOnSoftware told me that they do not intend to fix it. I have decided
to stay with version 3.9 (although I did upgrade to 4.0 - which I
uninstalled).

Thanx,

Don
