Guest 5shot Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 HI, I have an old DOS stand alone .exe program that runs with Windows if you ALLOW it to and IGNORE the caution about its 16 bit nature. I wrote it and have updated it so it works. Windows doesn't let you print to LPT1 so I have the program create a .txt file that can be printed later. It also doesn't use a mouse. So here's my question. Will such a program run on the new phones??? Here's a link to the readme file and to the app itself if your interested and would like to try it. It's FREEWARE. To unpack it, put it in a folder and change the .xex to .exe. readme - http://www.pointshooting.com/readme.txt program - http://www.pointshooting.com/expenses.xex I'm not a geek, just and old timer who plods along.

Rufio Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 I'm sure that it could be converted over using the Android SDK. You could also do it with the iOS (Apple) platform, but that costs $99 per year and is hard to do unless you have a Macbook. iPhone apps are written in Objective-C. Android apps are written in Java.
