What versions of Office will run under Windows Me?

I want to give Office to friend who uses WIndows Me. What versions of Office
will run under Windows Me? Specifically, will Office 2003 run under Windows
Me? The packaging says that it requires Windows XP or WIndows 2000, but is
Windows Me sufficient?

No, Office 2003 will not work with Windows ME. Office XP and earlier
versions will work with Windows ME.

Huh?! What's Office 2002 (not that there ever was any such thing) got to do
with it. Office 2003 requires Windows 2000, Windows XP or Windows 2003.

Um, when I open any of the programs in Office XP, they *all* say Office
2002, soooo, I guess there *is* such a thing.

No, the individual programs say Outlook 2002, Word 2002, Excel 2002, etc.
The Office Suite itself is Office XP, containing 2002 versions of the
individual Office programs.

So, all the programs say 2002 and you call it XP. Seems to me that if all
the programs say 2002, it is not an illogical conclusion to think that
Office XP is actually Office 2002.
