Word Perfect X3

I have a new computer with Windows Vista Home Basic operating system.
I downloaded a 30-day trial version of Word Perfect X3 and it works
fine. I see there are several versions of X3 for sale on the internet
at discount prices, but not all of them mention being compatible with
Windows Vista. Can some one tell me which are compatible, or should I
ask Corel direct? Thanks...

after the release of vista, Corel had updates for
corel draw and paint shop pro (that is now a corel product)

see if there is an update for word perfect on www.corel.com

I run WordPerfect X3 under Vista here without any problems at all.
There's essentially only one version of it that I know of, however,
unless you are referring to Retail vs. OEM copies (and even that is
only two kinds, not "several").

They are both compatible with Vista, as far as I know, but if there's
a question in your mind, and you want to make sure, ask in the
newsgroup corel.wordperfectx3 on the newsserver cnews.corel.com. When
you do, be sure to identify precisely what you mean by those "several"
different versions.

Belated posting! I purchased Word Perfect X3 and it works just great
like the trial version did. Thanks to all who posted replies to my
original!
