Will Office 2003 work with Windows Vista

K

Before I buy a new CPU with Vista Home Premium, I want to know if Office 2003
is compatible. My understanding is Microsoft Works which is preloaded on the
computer does not include Word, and I have worked with Word for years and
want to continue to do so. I'm not particularly interested in buying Office
2007 if 2003 is compatible. What about Outlook 2003? Will I have any
trouble transfering files from Office 2003 on my old XP Professional laptop
to Vista running Office and Outlook 2003?

Yes, you can run Office 2003 on Vista. I am assuming you have a retail
version and not an OEM version, which cannot be installed on a different
computer.

(Also, before you assume that Works is preinstalled, you may want to ask
that question before you hand them your charge card.)
