Not if it is patched with the latest updates.

Many thanks Graham and Suzanne.
I forgot to mention that I have Abode Acrobat 7 already installed
without
any problems and have read here that there can be a clash between it
and 2003. Is it a major issue?

To confirm what Graham said, if you install Word/Office 2003 *over*
(rather than *beside*) Office 2000, all your customizations,
documents, templates, etc., will be preserved. The main issue you
will experience will be a much more stable application that, when it
does (rarely) crash recovers much more gracefully.

...
I have the option at work to upgrade to 2003.
Obviously I am worried about my templates and personal settings.
What is the best way to protect these when the upgrade occurs?
Is there a site of the pros & cons, what to beware of, etc.
relating to this upgrade?
What problems/issues have other users come across?

Many thanks
DeanH
