Hi Sandy,

If there is no other way to upgrade this version of the program, a possible
workaround occurs to me. If you have some *real* and bootable Win,
also install it there and do your online upgrade there. Then, assuming you
have a valid install of the earlier Quicken '98 in OS/2, overwrite those files
with the .EXE's, .DLL's, etc. from the updated directory or directories on
the real Win side. I have found this to work for some 16-bit Win app.s that
run under Win-OS/2, unless there is something that needs to get updated in
WIN.INI or SYSTEM.INI of this sub-system, in which case this might still be
done manually. Your best bet for identifying that would be an install to Win
3.1
inside a real DOS partition, because any changes this makes in Win-98 may not
be in an accessible place. (The 16-bit Win stuff is a dicey proposition under
NT
or later, in any case.)

[I may still have Win 3.1 diskettes around here somewhere.]

With Quicken, I guess you're going to need 'Net access to make use of the
program ?
That would mean dialing out under Win-OS/2. It sounds like you have a separate

problem to overcome in that area.
