Summary: Great version of a great product
Review: Glad to be back in the calendar business again!!! This is one of the best calendar packages out there, and I highly recommend it.I started using calendar creator with DOS way back and loved it. The first windows versions were decent, then with version 5 the software became so buggy it wasn't worth it. It seems with verion 8 though, they have managed to overcome most of their problems. I'm running it on windows 98 and having good luck. It is a little complicated for someone unaccustomed to the software, but once you figure it out, all the features really add to the flexability. I'm hoping the newer versions add a few more features, but this one works well and I'm pleased!

Summary: can 't set the dates!
Review: I am very happy with this software. No problems. I've created calendars from scratch with family photos, and used the ready made templates as well. Easy to use. Broderbund products are really great! I have XP and did not have any problems. But then I use an HP printer.

Summary: A terrible, horrible, no good, very bad piece of software.
Review: I bought this product to make family calendars and have found it useless. My biggest beef? You can't have more than one event on a date -- it appears on as "overflow" that you must print as an additional sheet! How many families do you know with no overlapping birthdays or anniversaries?

Summary: Buyer Beware
Review: I bought this software locally, and tried to install it yesterday. Instructions say to shut down any background programs when installing in Windows ME, which I did. Not only did the software not install--although there were noises and blinking lights--the process somehow made my CD and DVD drives "undetectable" by my computer, just as if they didn't exist. Upon going to the support URL listed on the package, I found out the product is no longer supported, so if there's a problem you're on your own. I got my drives back through system restore and Windows Update. So, be careful with this one, especially if you have any of the newer Windows OS's; it was evidently made for the older ones and has compatibility problems. I was surprised and disappointed, because I've had good luck with Broderbund before.

Summary: I HATE IT!!
Review: I finally had to upgrade since my old version wouldn't run on XP. This one runs but printing is a total pain-in-the-butt! Unlike the other reviewer, I did manage to get it to print, sort of. (Maybe I have a different LexMark printer.) But overall, the whole package stinks!! Learning curve is horrible. Nothing is intuitive! Events keeps rescheduling themselves. Defaults don't work. If all you want to do is print out pretty calendars with nothing on them, then fine. It's cheap. Go for it. Maybe it will work. If you want one place to keep track of your life, maybe it will work. It's cheap. But you might look at other packages first before settling for this one.
