So what if it's adapted - it has been adapted for Australian conditions.  It
has been running my business satisfactorily since 1994.

No MYOB does not run under Crossover because being "Australian", it does not
sell enough volume for it to have appeared on the Crossover radar screen.  I
have had dialog with Codeweavers and they would be willing to accommodate it
but it will cost money.  I am not sure that MYOB would be interested in
throwing money at it but I will ask them soon.

Codeweavers have accommodated QuickBooks because it is sold worldwide - this
is a business reality.

If you want to run stuff under Crossover, then save yourself a lot of pain
by going to their site to find out what has been accommodated and what has
not.

http://www.codeweavers.com/products/office/supported_applications.php - it
is an impressive list.

This is probably off topic anyway.

Regards,

Rick
