I believe the last version of Access PC is 3.0, dated August, 1993. I
used this with both System 7.1 and 7.5 with no problems years ago.(and it
worked great!) This may work better for you than the older version. I
wouldn't worry about the software being old because you are using a
computer and system from the same era. Should match up well. Good luck
finding the newer version now, however.
