Since I posed the original Approach/XP question, I have found only one quirk in v9.6. When I try to delete a date in a date field by using the "delete" key, it doesn't work, but "backspace" does. Admittedly, I am not at power user of Approach and there may be other problems that I don't know about, but for my purposes, I have packed up my old ME computer and am using Approach on the XP machine without further problems.
