Thank you, Sage! You guys rock!
Sage has finally come through on my request for a Treo 650-compatible version of Act! for Palm OS. (Tip o' the hat to Laura Costa of Sage for tipping me off on its release). The new version seems nice (I've just had it installed for a couple of hours, so I can't give you a full review on it yet), and requires the latest version of Act!, Act! 2006 (v. 8.0.2 or later required). I just happened to have a copy of Act! 2006 laying around, and installed it today as well. I'm looking forward to getting back to my old routines.
Many of you probably are K2 participants who have other apps which use MS SQL Server Desktop Edition installed, so I'll go ahead and give you the secret for getting Act! 2006 to work on your PC. Follow these steps, and you shouldn't get the database issues which come from having incompatible versions of SQL server on your PC:
1. Instead of installing the version of ACT! on the ACT! 2006 CD, go to the ACT! website Support Downloads page (http://www.act.com/support/updates/index.cfm??) (registration required), and download the 30 day trial version of Act! 2006 (8.0.2) off of the website.
2. Uninstall any versions of ACT! on your PC.
3. Install the version of ACT! 2006 you downloaded, and enter your serial number into this program after it's installed.
Congrats! You should now be ACT'ing normal.
Summary: Sage Software good. Averatec bad. Film at 11.
