    On my old XP machine I have a old dearly loved program that I regularly use, namely my trusty old "Lotus Oraganizer 97 GS Edition "
    Is there something closely similar out there that will work and function like the lotus for Win 8.1.
    I don't use the old full Lotus 123, just the Organizer, best ever in my book.

    Thank you guys, much appreciated.
    When looking for my old 97 Edition CD, I came across a slightly younger one,
    same as yours Pete I think "Lotus Smart Suite Millennium Edition 9.5, full version.
    At first when I tried to install on 8.1, I kept getting the message
    ltscsn13.DLL is missing from your computer.
    Going by the link from Whiskeyman I had to try several times Run as Administrator then it decided to load, but I did not install the full Suite, only Organizer and Word, and I am happy to report that it is working fine.
    Amazing, when you think how old this program is.
    I was looking for a way to transfer all my contacts over, but then I thought maybe not, do a fresh entry, one that is up to date.
    Hope you all had a good day like I did, glorious sunshine and 19ºC to top it off.

    Good news - like you I would be lost without it.
    Nope :) The traditional August Bank Holiday here in the UK - with traditional weather. ~15 deg C and steady rain all day :(
