759812 2009-03-26 10:59:00 office XP (2002), one because i found it free on a *ahem* "recycled" hard drive and two it works quite well on my aging compaq to my faster main computer williamF (115)
759813 2009-03-26 19:14:00 Office 2007. I haven't learnt how to apply vba like stuff on any of the other applications. Is it possible? the_bogan (9949)
759814 2009-03-26 19:37:00 Office 2003 on Vista because I bought a full copy (via Trademe) a couple of years ago. Have installed it a number of times now and now have to make the phone call to M$ to activate it on reinstall.

New job requires some chunky data analysis, so I'm using that justification that Excel 2007 has over a million rows to upgrade to Office 2007 Pro. Should arrive tomorrow... And the the fun starts....

If youre using Office 07, you may want to try some pre-SP2 fixes

Info here (support.microsoft.com)

The fixes are under update information. You need to request them

I'm confused Speedy (not difficult!).

Is this in addition to SP2? Apparently applied after SP2?

759818 2009-03-26 20:29:00 It's SP2 for Office 2007, not XP. SP2 isnt out for Office 07 yet (its only up to SP1)

Its meant to fix some performance issues by the looks of it (with the PST file, and OST, whatever that is)

759819 2009-03-26 20:53:00 '07 '03 and OpenOffice, depending on which PC you look at. wratterus (105)
759820 2009-03-26 23:46:00 Why doesn't the poll allow multiple selections, and why no "Other"?

I use Office 2003 at work and 2008 at home.
