office 03 on vista?

[jasonz]

Does office 2003 not work on vista. I just installed it on my XP partition, and i was gonna use excel but got "The operating system is not presently configured to run this application." The message is pretty self explanatory, but does that mean i cant use it.

If not, i am willing to get 07. Does it use more resources than 03? And will that run on XP? And how do yall like it, better or worse.

Thanks, Jason

Well i've heard many people complain it does not work, but it did on my work pc when i installed vista.no probs, no error or whatsoever.
If it doesn't, use 2007 it's far better, but again you have to get use to the interface change, no big change, and oh yes it definitely use more resources than 03

I haven't got 07 for free, yet. My Dad gets them for free from his work, he can get student and teacher edition or Pro. I just have 03, will it work? On Home Premium x64?

Thanks
