Vista and Office XP 2002 SP3

I'm looking at upgrading to a new machine with vista. Through all my
searching around it appears the Office XP 2002 SP3 will work with Vista. Can
anyone confirm.

Thanks

I just installed Front Page 2002 and it works fine. I can't vouch for the
whole suite.

It will work properly, except for Outlook.
The prob in Outlook is that it won't remember your passwords.
You have to log in each time.

Yes, it will work. There is an issue with Outlook remembering your
password, but that's the only problem I'm aware of.

Office XP (2002) has some issues with Vista. For instance, Outlook will
not remember passwords. This will not be fixed. You should ask the
experts in one of the Office newsgroups for more details.
