Please do whatever you wish and I hope you have luck with it. However, have you considered Open Office? It's current and it's free. I use an MS Office suite almost every day at work and Open Office at home. If there is some breath-taking difference I've missed it.

If you mean can you download an upgrade, the answer is no. There have been a couple of newer Office programs sold over the years ie. Office2003 and Office2007. You would have to purchase one of these to upgrade. But, as DA said Open Office offers everything that MS Office does and it is free

"Microsoft Office 2003 is a productivity suite written and distributed by Microsoft for their Windows operating system. Released on November 17, 2003, it was the successor to Office XP and the predecessor to Office 2007." XP Products "Microsoft Office XP is a productivity suite written and distributed by Microsoft for their Windows operating system. Released on March 5, 2001, it is the successor to Office 2000 and the predecessor to Office 2003, and was known as Office 10 in the early stages of its development cycle. Despite the "XP" branding, Office XP does not require Windows XP or higher; rather, "XP" was a marketing term for its era." Microsoft Word Viewer is a standalone freeware program for Microsoft Windows that lets users who do not own Microsoft Word view and print documents that were created in Microsoft Office. Microsoft Excel Viewer is a freeware program for viewing and printing spreadsheet documents created by Microsoft Excel. To me looks like the machine does not have Microsoft office 2003. That's the reason those programs may have been installed above.

I have three accounts with my ISP. I think they don't allow communication among different accounts that all use their server. I don't understand why they won't let me see my messages on the two list I participate in. I can see in my Out box that these messages have gone out, but I can't see how they appear on the lists. If no one on the list directly refers to my entry I can't feel certain that the topic/response is being read by other list members. I have read somewhere that my ISP says this policy prevents duplication of information taking up my space. Huh???

I would try going to their respective websites and see if there is info there about using them with Vista it may lead you to new drivers or instructions you might need with Vista. You can always use the free open office too which works great, I use it. here are some links that might help http://support.microsoft.com/kb/932087 here is a blog with discussion on this along with some various replies with possible fixes http://miniburb.wordpress.com/2006/11/23/vista-setup-installed-office-2000/ and replies to this same question from the tech guy forum.

I have both Office 2007 and Open Office (latest version). I normally use Office as most of my colleagues use Office. While Open Office can import/create/modify Office Word, Powerpoint, and Excell documents, there are a few glitches. I have lived without Office for a few years while engaged professionally and I got by, again working with others who had MS Office.

An interesting pre-Office 2007 (and Office 2007 may now or soon will be included) benefit of Open Office is it would import and generate everything from Word 6 (or thereabouts) to Open Office 2002 (or whatever the last pre-2007 is). MS has no problem dropping support for interworking with its own older versions. Open Office also works with Word Perfect, and others I think.

Now that I am fully retired I went ahead and purchased a copy of Home Office 2007 for $129. This version is a full version, but may not be used for any commercial/for profit, or even paid not-for-profit operation. It may also be used on up to three private (home) computers, so I also installed it on my wife's computer, them main reason I purchased it. She would not accept Open Office, and was using Office 95, which is almost non-operative with recent Office versions.

By "upgrade" do you mean getting the Office 2000 up-to-date? Microsoft appears to still permit downloads for Office 2000.
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=af6c8d03-7633-45b4-ab96-795ee656f2a2&DisplayLang=en
It shows that "Others who downloaded Service Pack 1a (SR-1a) also downloaded...." Sp3, Sp2 and security updates.
