Is Office 97 compatible with Windows 2000 Professional?

[Karen]

I just got a computer from my brother that already had Windows 2000
Professional on it and my son needs Office for school. I have the Office 97
program and installed it and it said it installed successfully but doesn't
work and I received an error message that it is not installed.

Hi Karen,

Yes, Office 97 works with Windows 2000.

What is the exact error message you receive and
what action are you taking when you receive it?

Are you logged in as administrator when starting
Word 97?
