Q. What operating systems does NeuroSolutions run on?
A. The full GUI environment of NeuroSolutions runs under Windows NT and Windows 95.

Q. Are there versions of NeuroSolutions for the Macintosh, Sun, etc.?
A. Not at present, and there are no immediate plans for porting the GUI environment to other platforms (see the next question).

Q. Does NeuroSolutions run under Unix?
A. Yes, NeuroSolutions runs under Unix, but without the GUI environment. The source code license provides the user with the complete NeuroSolutions’ core algorithmic code, either as a pre-compiled library or raw source code to be compiled by the user. The easiest way to make use of the library is to use the code generation capabilities of the Professional and Developer’s levels, which generate source code from the GUI breadboard. Alternatively, the user can write code that calls the library.

Q. How can I communicate with NeuroSolutions from another program?
A. NeuroSolutions is an OLE compatible server, which means it can be controlled by any OLE client, such as MS Excel™ or a MS Visual Basic™ application. The OLE commands take advantage of NeuroSolutions’ macro language. Two of our other products, the "NeuralWizard" and "NeuroSolutions for Excel™", control NeuroSolutions externally as clients in this way.
