We have 150 licenses of Windows 98. We have not budegeted
for Upgrading these licenses to Windows XP.

We are having problems in printing spooled reports from HP
Unix 11.11. We are using Oracle 9i database and 11i e-
business suite on the HP Unix and printing reports thru
Windows 98 is serious problem we are having right now.

I want help in resolving this.

Secondly how long Microsoft is giving support for Windows
98.

Regards

Surya.

Did this printing configuration work previously and now has stopped
working, or has it never worked?

Current information regarding support for Windows 98 can be found at
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/lifecycleconsumer.asp

Here is one excerpt:
"Paid incident support is now available through 30-Jun-2006. Extended
hotfix support for Windows 98 and Windows 98 Second Edition ended on
30-Jun-2003. Extended hotfix support for Windows Millennium ended on
31-Dec-2003. Online self-help support will continue to be available
until at least 30-Jun-2007."

Good luck
