Can any one advice me please (Page 2): As long as they have a Mac version, it should not be a problem.

Ditto what others say about Mac versions of your programs. However, some do not have Mac versions and for those you can use an application called Parallels Desktop that can create a virtual Windows machine that runs on a Mac if you need it. For me it's been just like running "Windows" but it's a screen on the Mac OS desktop. Wierd huh, but it works!

If you’re a cross-platform worker, Parallels Desktop puts both operating systems together so you can switch between and among all your running applications. Yes, it’s weird, but it works stunningly well. It works with DOS, Windows, Linux, and older versions of MacOS.

Ok I made a slip up. I normally check what I have written to make sure it is all fine. As you could not help me why just put up a comment about my spelling? I have seen many spelling mistakes on peoples post but am not rude enough to point them out as I know if you are in a hurry a slip of the finger is all that is needed.(If you have problems with the hands this can make it harder for some to type) I look at the post and comment on the contents, be it pictures or questions etc. Still, if it makes you feel good about being able to correct me, on line on a forum loads of people can read instead of maybe a pm if you are so troubled about my slip up then I am very happy for you to notch up another victory... Another time if you want to correct some one please give a thought they they may have problems that make it hard to type for some reason, My friend had a stroke last year and is now able to type better, she makes lost of typing errors but I would never dream of correcting her as she has done so well and I can understand what she types and it may stop her from keeping in contact. She is a very well educated lady so had no spelling problems. Please think about all the people on this forum who have had strokes or some sort of disability myself included before you judge... We are not all perfect...
