Windows 7 & Office 2003 compatibility

[Roockie]

I am new to the Windows 7 operating system. Actually, I have shifted from Windows XP. I have done a clean install and I am used to the older softwares that I was using in it. So, I want to know mainly about the Windows 7 & Office 2003 compatibility.

I have heard that most of the softwares and applications that work fine in the older operating systems have issues in Windows 7. Please provide the required information as soon as possible.

I suppose that there is no need to check for the Windows 7 & Office 2003 compatibility. This is because I guess that this software will be mostly incompatible. Well, I am not able to understand why you are using such an old version when a very advanced and user-friendly version of this software is available, that is Office 2007. I suggest you to go with the same.
