[2003 Pro]

Please in the future DO NOT POST any office questions
regarding Office 2000 or lower, as they are obsolete
applications and are irrelivant to today's technology.

Thank you

So who made you the boss? your mummy?

All the more reason to help those less fortunate than we who can afford to go
out and buy the latest, bestest? that MS has to offer. MS has abandoned these
poor wretches, how can we do likewise in their time of greatest need?

I say bring us your questions on your antique software and I for one will do my
damnedest to remember how I used it in the old days!

Cheers,
John

Dear Pro,

If I'm not mistaken, versions of MS Office later than 2000 won't even run on
operating systems such as Windows 98 AND I read recently that 25% of the
personal computers in the world are still running 98 or 98SE.

Are you disenfranchising those of us who are not on the cutting edge as you
must be?

It is only Office 2003 System that will not install on earlier operating
systems. It needs Windows 2000 with SP3 or later or Windows XP.

Office XP will install on Windows98, 98se and ME quite happily.

I have helped support this newsgroup for several years now and do not
see why questions on previous versions of Office should not be asked.
