Great Plains with XP SP2

[Megz]

Does anyone know of any issues with Great Plains V7.5 with XP Service Pack 2 before I install the SP?

check customersource, there was a nice article stating xp s2 was authorized on 8.0... not sure if 7.5 was though

-----------
and they wonder why they call it Great Pains!

We have workstations on SP2 and its doing fine. Also try to check 3rd-party modules in GP and get approval from vendors. We have one vendor that's still testing their product but their product isn't shared on our network.

I should just mention that you need to look at the SP2 documentation on PartnerSource as it explains that you may need to open port 1433 for SQL or 435 for MSDE to allow the workstations to communicate with the server through the firewall.
