| | Microsoft Greetings .php files - opening problems I am using Vista Home Premium and cannot open .php files created with Microsoft Greetins since Microsoft Greetings (the best Greeting card program ever made!) is incompatible with Vista. How can one open the files created in the .php format? Adobe Go-Live tries to open them, but fails. Thanks, -- Fosbury |

| XP Pro 32bit | Re: Microsoft Greetings .php files - opening problems Does the greeting card program install? If it does install have you tried running it in XP compatibility mode with administrative permissions? |

The only problem is that most of these programs are not compatible with Vista. I'm thinking your best bet for opening and editing Microsoft .php files on Vista would be "Microsoft Digital Image Suite 2006 Anniversary Edition". (This software is optimized for Vista). There's a 60 day trial version available for download if you would like to give it a try: Microsoft Digital Image Starter Edition 2006 http://tinyurl.com/28loxr (this product line has been discontinued but you can still download the Starter Version and run it for 60 days) Unlike the retail version...the trial does not have the ability to create VCDs and it does not include the clipart and pre-formatted projects. -- John Inzer Digital Media MVP Notice This is not tech support I am a volunteer Solutions that work for me may not work for you Proceed at your own risk |
