It would be quite an extensive testing effort to make sure every feature
works but people are reporting success with the combination except for OE,
which is replaced by Windows Mail. I've been running Office 2003 and Vista
Home Premium since the start. Is there some particular option you would
like to be verified? I have both type machines running here, Office 2003
with XP SP2 and Vista (kept fully updated but no SP1 yet), so I can check
both to see if it's a Vista problem or not.

Yes it does. There will probably be updates to install after you have
installed office 2003.
I have successfully installed and run Office 2000 on Vista. Others on this
news group have indicated that office 2003, office XP, and office 2007 also
works on Vista.

You will have to uninstall Office 2007 before installing Office 2003.

If you are an Outlook user, you will have to re-enter your user name and
password each time you start the program. I don't know of any other
problems, but there may be some.

It is generally accepted that, other than the Outlook issue, it runs ok..

That's very strange. I do not remember having that problem when I was using
Vista with Office 2003. Are you sure you aren't talking about Office 2000??
