Bob, while I can sympathise, I don't think this is Microsoft's fault. IT was written 20 years ago for a different operating system. We can't expect Microsoft to support this forever, it's just not practical.

It's probably worth the time investment to learn a new client.....

P.S. That is about the only time you will ever hear me defend Microsoft :)
