Hi,

I don't whether this fits your needs or not, but FWIW...

I've come to loathe eXceed.  I've found that I just can't get a 
comfortable working environment under Windows no matter how hard I 
try.  I recommend you switch to Linux and run either VMWare or 
Win4Lin.  This will give you the best of both worlds.

Win4Lin is only a $50 license, while VMWare is $200.  VMWare will 
require much more in the way of system resources, but it's also 
capable of doing a whole lot more (you can install any x86 based OS
into it).  Win4Lin uses significantly fewer resources, but you're 
stuck with intalling Win98 I believe.

HTH,
