[Papyrus-L] papyrus works ok in Windows ME

[Oliver Floerl]

I have just followed step-by-step instructions in Windows XP (home) and it does not work. When I perform a search and press "V" to view the list, the yellow line is at the bottom of the screen and keeps chasing my mouse cursor. Personally, I prfer using the keyboard instead of the mouse, but the arrow keys do not work anymore at all. They *do* work in other windows - e.g. I can use them in the master window to select "Edit", "Group", "Formats", etc., but once I get to the View window of a search they switch off. 

Also the clipboard instructions for NT have no effect. Yes, I can now use F3 and dump stuff from PAPYRUS elsewhere, but I cannot use Ctrl-C or the Copy command in Windows to paste an astract into PAPYRUS using F4.

Any suggestions, XP users??

Cheers,
Oli

    I not gotten it to run at all in XP.

    I would like to convert to EndNote.
    Fortunately I cann afford to abandon my notes.
    However, I would like to preserve keywords, although in a pinch I could abandon them.

    I assume that I will output a file in APA style, which I will then import into EndNOte.  If I cannot transfer keywords, I will re-enmer them manually.   I have only 500 documents, and the keywords need to be cleaned up anyway.

    Suggestions?

        Oli, 
        My understanding is that Papyrus doesn't run properly in Windows versions newer than 98 SE and there is no patch or fix available. (Someone correct me if I'm wrong...) 

      It seems to work fine in Windows ME, but a student showed me she had difficulty in  Windows 2000 with the cursor movements
