Calendar Creator Plus for Windows Gold Edition v. 2
released under the SoftKey brand name
copyright 1995 by SoftKey Multimedia
Minimum System Requirements
Windows 3.x / 95
I have confirmed that Calendar Creator Plus for Windows Gold Edition v. 2 works quite well on 32-bit versons of Windows XP, Vista & Windows 7. However, Calendar Creator Plus for Windows Gold Edition v. 2 cannot be installed on any 64-bit version of Windows - because the program's setup.exe file contains 16-bit programming code, which was commonly used in Windows 3.x / 95 applications. 64-bit Operating Systems cannot handle 16-bit programming code.

It is not possible to register Calendar Creator 8 - because 1) Calendar Creator 8 is several years old and 2) it is no longer possible to access the registration site. So, when you reach the registration phase of the installation process, the recommended procedure is to just click on 'Register Later'.
It is not possible to access the 'ExpressIt Art' online images on the Art Gallery - because ExpressIt was discontinued approximately 2004. So, when you open Calendar Creator 8, select Add | Picture to open the Art Gallery, then click on the 'Expressit Art' tab, the 'Expressit Registration Required' window will open. Since registration is not possible, your only option would be to click on the 'Cancel' button, then click on the 'Art and Photos' tab - to access the images which were included on the Calendar Creator 8 disc.
