    Sidekick 98 clock weirdness

    Hey. Thanks for the help thus far. I double checked that none of the Sidekick files were read-only. Some were, but I changed them. Then I typed something in today's To Do section, saved the calendar, closed the program, and restarted it. The new stuff I'd just typed was gone. I'm wondering...

    Sidekick 98 clock weirdness

    Patch applied as instructed. No effect. The old stuff on my Calls and To Do list keep reverting to March 10 at midnight (March 10 being the day I transferred my data files to the new computer.) I also noticed something I now realize has been happening all along but didn't quite note before...

    Very old Sidekick, very new OS

    I've been using Sidekick 2 for many years, and have never upgraded, except from Sidekick 1. It's worked fine in Win 3.1, Win 95, and Win 98. Now, I've got a new computer with Win XP. What are my options and how do I proceed with them? If I could find another application that handled...
