All of which assumes that the OEM actually gave you a CD and that it
qualifies for an upgrade on another machine.

Sure, Office 2003 runs perfectly under Vista.

What I mean is that you have a version of Office XP, it qualifies you for
an UPGRADE version of Office 2003: so you do not have to pay for the full
product rather buy the upgrade which will save you some shekels.

When you install an upgrade, if you don't have the qualifying version
installed. Setup will ask you for the qualifying softwa all you do is
remove the Office 2003 CD, insert the Office 2002 CD; setup will see it
and prompt you to put the Office 2003 install disk back into the drive
again.

Will Office 2003 run on Vista?

Amazon sells Office 2003. What do you mean by "You qualify for an
upgrade as you have Office XP even though it is OEM"

I would HIGHLY recommend that you at least go for Office 2003. It has all
the looks and feel of Office 2002 (XP) but is INFINITELY more stable and
usable. Office XP was a real dog of a release.

Office 2003 is still available. Try Amazon or one of the on line
retailers but don't touch 'used' copies: definitely not legal. You
qualify for an upgrade as you have Office XP even though it is OEM.

You can't install that OEM version of Office on another computer. It
basically dies with the old system. It *could* be used as the
qualifying product for a 2007 upgrade version tho.

My computer died. It had Office XP 2002 Small Business Edition
pre-installed on it. I have all of the install CDs that came the the
system.

I now have a Vista Home Premium computer with Office 2007 Home and
Student edition pre-installed. I would like to remove it and install
Office 2002. Can I do that? How?

Thanks, CB
