I haven't used Office 97 in so-o-o long. Just out of interest, how much
need
is there for Office 97 compatibility in your situation?

I go out of my way to require at least Windows 2000. THis is due to certain
APIs, or API options, not working pre-Win 2000.

Depending on the app. I try to include Excel 97.

I'm doing the developing with Excel 2003,.
I'l lonly drop Excel 97 if I have to do tumblesaults to include support.
So far, no obstacles.
