im running Win7 64bit. i have Quickbooks installed. i need to install UPS WorldShip but it refuses to run in 64bit. i was able to install it in the WinXP Virtual Machine. but Quickbooks and UPS WorldShip need to be able to talk! any ideas? i tried installing UPS in compatibility mode but no luck. Win7 should have a 32bit compatibility mode check box :p

Weird, I doubt there is any device drivers so my guess is they still have 16bit code in the app. Im afraid the only integration (right now) would be for you to run QB in the VM as well...

Yea, knowing how craptastic UPS worldship is, I would bet there is plenty of 16bit code running.
