I HAVE A NEW COMPUTER WITH WINDOWS 7. I CANNOT LOAD CALENDAR CREATOR 12 INTO IT.

I too have upgraded to Win 7, and have had nothing but problems trying to replicate the Calendar Creator V 2 I used happily for about 15 years in Win XP.
I have spent now 2 months on the project and am going nuts. I paid $90 for the upgrade to Win 7 PRO, so I could run my old Calendar Creator in “Virtual XP”, and spent a month getting it to work, only to have it all erased when I had problems with Virtual XP and then made the mistake of letting a Microsoft tech support person uninstall it and reinstall it, wiping out my weeks of work getting the old Calendar Creator rebuilt. (Do NOT try that PRO route!)
I bought Calendar Creator 12 to work in Win 7, and it too is loaded with problems, such as 1) I am spending many hours relearning how to get the same stuff done that I could do so easily in the old version , 2) It is very tricky importing my old data files, and 3) I cannot get it to print in color. All the hours it will take to get it to look right on the screen will be WASTED if I cannot get it to print right, and from what I can tell the printing problem may be insurmountable.
I have wasted enough time on Calendar Creator 12. The OUTLOOK 2010 calendar is pathetic, but I am trying to get it to work for me. I'm amazed at how casual they have been in its design; I wish they had some of the features of Calendar Creator, especially in use of fonts and other controls. The free download (Calendar Printing Assistant) - CPA is a big help. (Microsoft itself offers it as an extra, but one wonders why they did not simply put its features into Outlook in the first place!) Now I am finding that CPA requires me to get into its programming language to get a satisfactory use of fonts, etc.
Sorry for this rant, but after the time and money I have spent to get what I already had before "upgrading", it's just amazing that the state of the art in Calendar software is so pathetic.
