[Justin Allaire]

Varkie,
 
If you have windows 7 64bit. You can run most if not all 32bit windows
applications using windows xp mode within windows 7.

I bought the APEC (Automated Procedures for Engineering Consultants)
APEC programs as memorabilia when it folded up in 2002.  APEC was
founded in 1965.  The APEC HCC-V (Heating & Cooling Calculations version
V) program can still be used.  At SOM it was used until 2002.  

I was able to install and run the HCC-V program on a 32-bit computer but
not the 64-bit computer.  Does anyone know how to fix a 32-bit program
to run on a 64-bit computer.  I have the source code.

HCC-V is based on the TETD method.  If you don't know what a decrement
factor is, enter 0.5 (the range 0 to 1).  For an office bldg that closes
at 6 PM make the time lag 3 hours (HCC assumes the peak hour is 3 PM) so
that it affects the building during office hours.

You can find information about the APEC HCC-V program in the website
