I have installed MS Office Standard Edition and it works with no problems.
I installed all except Outlook, so not sure how outlook would act with Vista.

Reply: (edit)I didn't know about the problem with sp3, because I have never run any updates on my MS Office 2000, and have had no problems.

Reply: (edit)U're welcome. I reckoned that at my age life's getting very short. So I went out & bought Office 2997 to go with Vista Home Business. Believe me it's a big improvement from all earlier versions and faster too. i_XpUser

Reply: (edit)FWIW I found Open Office's Word equivalent fully compatible with MS Office 2000. The same was true of Excel spreadsheets but any graphs had to be re-done or modified. DerekW
