Thanks John; I had see things mentioning Compatibility View also and
passed that on to them.
Appreciate feedback (you too Jeff). We have a view vendor apps that
require IE as ridiculous in this day and age as that is...

Subject: Re: [PCTECH] Any problems with IE 8?
IE8 has been out as a general release for about 6 months and was
available
for beta testing for months prior to that. While 6+ months may not be
enough time to update their app to run nicely in the new browser, they
should be working on it and should be able to give you a date at which
time
IE8 would be fully supported.
Has the app been tried using Compatibility View?

And with the whole .NET thing, it sounds like they're looking for
something
to blame beyond their app when in reality the app has bugs they haven't
exterminated. I think Chuck has it right: The vendor has work to do.
I use Firefox mostly but have updated all of the machines I touch to IE8
with no problems at all. Does the app run in non-IE browsers?
