IBM is marketing Lotus now, so it's up to them. http://www-01.ibm.com/software/lotus/products/smartsuite/
If it works on Vista, it's very likely to work on Win7.
will Lotus SmartSuite run on Windows 7?

Planning on updating office computer. Our Tech doesn't think our lotus will run on the new Windows 7 64 bit. Need to confirm.

2011-03-17T14:44:34+00:00 I installed (from setup.exe) Lotus123 and Approach (9.8) on a computer with Windows 7 64bit. Both applications installed and are running with no problems for the last 3 weeks.
I installed lotus smartsuite on all my machines here. windows 7. they run. but a few times a week the lotus icons disappear! Anyone have this problem and if so a solution possibly? thanks, Tammy

2011-03-16T01:37:11+00:00 I just installed Lotus Smart Suite 9.7 Mmillenium in my new computer running Windows 7, 64 BIT. As recomended by others in this forum, I did not try "Autorun" but went directly to install using "setup.exe". Seems to run all programs OK. During registration, I noticed that Lotus sees the Windows 7 64 BIT as Windows NT 4.

2011-03-09T05:09:12+00:00 In response, this is what I did. Inserted CD, then went to "my computer", then right clicked drive where Lotus CD has been inserted. Now, go down to "properties" and search for "Lotus set up" icon and click the icon. This should install program on your 'C' drive. Once the program has been installed, I went to "all programs" and searched for "Lotus Smart Suite" then right clicked, scrolled down to "send to" and sent shortcut to "Desktop". Once on "Desktop" right click to open. That should do it. One more thing, besure to uninstall any evidence of Lotus you may on your computer before you do the above.
