Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Ron,

Perhaps they are taken the time to sort out any "issues" that P6 has thrown up, before releasing Contractor version of P6.

I have just found out that this same issue holds true for Contractor. Contractor software will not work with Vista.

It seems that the current version of Contractor is Version 5 and that a Version 6 Contractor (based upon the already released P6) will not be available until March 2008. I find it very strange that it takes Primavera 6 months to release software that is merely a re-complied version of existing software.

Hi Ibrahim
as far as I know, P5 won’t run under Vista. It will work with P6 - the current version of Primavera enterprise.
