I talked to the Rinda help line about 3 mos. ago, they didn't mention anything like that coming out when I asked. Did you know that you can review the files from Windows you just can't link to the car when you're in Windows.
Good luck, Dave :flag

I do not think its available. Diacom was DOS saoftware that was written back in the mid eighties when there wasn't Windows. They made a pretty penny with it back then, AND still do nowadays. Imagine, write some code, charge an arm and a leg for it....that keeps selling 18 years later! Why develop a Windows app for it? I'm in the wrong business. :smash:

Sorry, they do not make a true windows application of Diacom. You can run the DOS app from a DOS box within windows....its still a DOS engine.
