I'm using Robohelp 7 on Win XP and need to upgrade to windows 7 - will the robohelp work as always?

I tried it on a virtual PC with win 7 and it seems to be ok but I'm not sure. Has anyone tried it?

I am 99% sure that only RoboHelp 8 supports Windows 7 and only the 32 bit version at that.

Colum, hope you don't mind if I rephrase that.

Adobe supports RH8 on Windows 7 32 bit.

That does not mean RH8 will not work on Windows 7 64 bit, just that it is not officially supported. It's the same with RoboHelp 7. It may work but it is not officially supported.
