Office 2003 w/ Vista 64 bit

We just ordered a new laptop for our son (for school), that will be running
Windows Vista Home Premium 64 bit (eligible for the free Windows 7 upgrade
when it is released). Will his 32 bit 2003 Academic version of Office install
and run okay on the laptop? Thanks.

Should work OK. The program is fully compatible with Vista 64 bit but s**t
happens and .....

You should uninstall any trial Office software and any activation assistant,
reboot the computer before installing the Academic Version of Office.

I've been using Office 2003 with Vista for approx 6 months and have had no
problems with Office or Vista. I had a slight issue when I installed Office
it where it was asking me to "accept the License" each time I opened an
Office program, but found a fix on Microsoft's website that corrected the
problem. There are some issues with Office 2000 and Vista but Office 2003
works fine.
