| | | Office XP and Windows 7?
Maybe this is stupid and I'm almost 100% sure the answer is yes but does anyone know if you can run Office XP on Windows 7? I've had Windows 7 installed for 2 weeks and really dont want to mess it up by installing an incompatible program.
thanks for advising,

Which version of 7 are you running ?
I've had Enterprise loaded since it was available to SA customers and I must admit I really like it. I was the third person to install it GLOBALLY
I tried Vista for ONE day before it terminal blue screened me and haven't gone back since. | |

Pay to call ScottGem for advice ($.75/min) | I've run Office XP under win 7, no problems. Was at a launch event earlier today and anything that will run under Vista (and office XP did) will run under Win 7. | |

| Excellent! I am running Windows 7 Ultimate Signature Edition, I was one of however many people that were randomly drawn and given the 32 and 64 bit versions along with a bunch of crap and I'm supposed to have a "windows 7 launch party" on launch day. | |

| Yup, I have a bunch of tote bags, posters and other decorations and invited some friends. I found out someone else I know is also hosting a party on the same day so we'll combine them.
p.s. I actually found Office 2007 Basic came with my Dell and I never put it on, so even better! | |

Pay to call ScottGem for advice ($.75/min) | I debated doing a House Party (I would have been accepted if I had wanted to). But I didn't want to pay out for food and stuff. Besides, my house is a mess | |
