I'm about to upgrade my Win 98 SE operating system to XP Home Edition and have heard that I need to download a patch from the Microsoft Web site that will allow my MS Office Small Business 2000 to function with XP. I've looked on the MS site for such a patch but if there's one there, it's not apparent to me. Can anyone tell me if such a patch is necessary, and if so, where to get it? Thanks very much.

No, you'll have no problem installing Office2000 on XP - you'll find there are a load of updates available which I'd recommend downloading.
