Default Office End-User License Agreement

I have the same problem and have been told that Office 2003 is not
supported
by Vista.
Is this true??


That is not correct. Office 2003 is entirely compatible with Vista. I have
Office 2002, 2003, and 2007 installed on several Vista machines and haven't
noticed a problem. You can have only one version of Outlook on a machine,
but you can have several versions of the other Office programs.

I have the same problem and have been told that Office 2003 is not
supported
by Vista. The reason being that Office is downwardly compatible with
earlier operating systems, but not upwardly compatible with a newer
operating
system like Vista.

Is this true??

had and was told it was perfectly compatible. This really gets to be a
pain.
I have reloaded, etc.

Having loaded MS Office on my Windows Vista machine, every time I open
any of
the Office apps I'm asked to accept or decline the end-user license
agreement. I am logged in as the system administrator but this doesn't
help.
I've also tried reinstalling the software. i'm now thinking it could
be an
incompatibility with Vista itself. Any further suggestions?
