Need Help On OBD-II Test Results 850 1996

I am using Alex's OBD-II software and I am looking at the continuous and non-continuous monitoring screen. Under Continuous Monitoring, I have Misfire:YES, Fuel System:YES, and Comprehensive Component:YES so I assume all of this is the way I want it to be. It's my understanding to pass the emissions test in Georgia, all the non-continuous has to be set to YES. I did reset all the history and codes last week because the MIL came on and I have now replaced the O2 Sensor. I have been driving it for a couple of days and when I check the non-continuous monitor, I have Catalyst:NO, Evaporative System:NO, Oxygen Sensor:YES, Oxygen Sensor Heater:YES, EGR system:YES. So my question is if I need to keep driving it until the first two change to YES or for some reason is this not supported on this model and it will never change to YES.

Thanks for any help on this since I only have a couple weeks to get it resolved.

    Need Help On OBD-II Test Results

    Don't know why the codes won't reset, but you might want to double-check w/ the state as far as what is required to pass. In the county I'm in (in Texas) the catalyst and evap system failure is not a problem for inspection.
