    RoverRescue - sorry, I thought you were talking about the old business version of e-tax that the ATO supplied for a number of years, then stopped supporting.
    It was fine for my very small business purposes, but I suspect I need to get with the times and find a simple replacement, even though I can still do a paper version of my BAS reporting with it.

    Under Windows 7 Professional 64 bit I'm using the free Microsoft Virtual PC running XP. See http://www.aulro.com/afvb/computers/...7-64-bits.html

    However, I haven't installed VM Player as shown in that thread so I'm not sure why it's required. Microcat 2009 seems to run fine without it.

    As noted above, I can get an older version of MicroCat (2009) to run but not the 2012 version. It thinks it's out of date. MicroLaunch doesn't help.

    I want the later version because a lot of parts have superseded part nos.

    I can't find the MicroCat Date Change software on the 'net any more. I don't know if anyone here has it.

    I think I've found why MicroLaunch won't work. Changing the date in XP under Virtual Xp doesn't work because it seems XP gets its date from Win 7.

    I tried running it again after changing the date in Win 7 before loading the Virtual PC and the date matched. Running MicroLaunch got MicroCat past the out of date problem but now it's looking for a file called LREStart.dll. The only reference I can find on the 'net is in a website LRESTART.DLL Details. Is this file safe? Check the directory

    Note: first seen in the Russian Federation......

    Very sorry to say he's not back as far as I know - it's an old post just prior to his disappearance

    I had to install Oracle VM Virtual Box ( with Windows XP ) on my Windows 7 Computer to run my copy of Microcat. Wouldn't work other wise.

    I got a copy of LREStart.dll and MicroCat March 2012 is now running in my Win 7 64 bit machine under Windows Virtual PC

    It's actually installed in the MCLRE directory under the name LREStart.1. Renaming it should get it all working.

    MicroCat starts in Russian so you'll need this page to get beyond start up http://www.aulro.com/afvb/computers/...2012-01-a.html
