Office 97

[novice]

Is office 97 compatible with Windows XP?

 

[JR]

Office 97 can be installed on Widows XP.

But if you install the professional version of 97 (with Access, that is),
you may have a problem getting Access 97 to open. If you do, the solution
can be found (at least it was for me) in this document:

Good luck.

Office 97 does work with Windows XP, but some users report problems
installing Office 97 when Service Pack 2 for Windows XP is installed.
There are two ways around this problem:
1. You could uninstall WinXP SP2, install Office 97 and related service
packs, and reinstall WinXP SP2.
2. You could leave WinXP SP2 intact and do a custom installation of
Office 97 in which you set the Web Authoring Tools (HTML) to "not
available" in the setup options.
