Is Broderbund Calendar Creator ver. 9 and ver. 12 compatible with Windows 7?

Both programs load as expected.  Problem, Dates,  Event dates get problem message "The event date you have entered is invalid."  No variation of date or format alters error message outcome.  When printing, Programs' preview shows Header date on calendar correctly but Canon 850 preview shows header date as 'Jan 101' and the calendar is printed with this and only this header regardless of approach.  In addition, multiple calendars such as individual monthly for a year all come out dated the same way.  Assistance from Broderbund had failed they have given up.  Microsoft's help running these programs on earlier versions of Windows has failed to alter results.  I am using Windows 7.

Answer

If niether of these programs, which were designed for earlier versions of Win, run correctly using Compatibility mode options, then they are not going to run.

If you have Win7 Pro or Ultimate you can try them by installing winxp virtual PC, then istalling the programs under virtualXP
