Hello every body, I have a problem that I want to know that Does Simatic s7 micro/win software can use with Simatic s5 hardware or not?

please tell me as soon as possible
:cry:
 

According to one of the pdf files that come with S7 (STEP7 - From S5 to S7) pg 3-9 "Inserting a station" The SIMATIC S5 "are only listed for configuring communication links. Configuration and programming of S5 stations is not possible"
 
I know that Simatic S5 work with DOS, Can it run on window? If it can what does its version? where to find it? Which adapter to communicate between software and hardware?
 

Years ago I tried installing S5 on a dos machine but had no luck since the install disk (2 of them) were meant for the PG730 siemens programmer. It had its own dos system with a file extraction utility that I could not find for msdos. In the end I gave up, thinking that the PG730 was probably incompatable with MSDOS or that the PG730 had a built in dongle that would only allow the S5 disks i had to work with it. I did find some companies that had S5 programming software but the high costs of these packages made me decide to just use the brick (PG730)
