    I think it definitely will. I've run Office 2000 on it, and it works perfectly fine.

    Ya, it should work. There won't be any problem.
    But I am using MS office 2007 on it. No problems yet.

    there won't be any problem,
    you can use microsoft office 7 with word 2007, because I also use this combination
    But u have to first download the compatibility pack to run this together

    Microsoft seems to have taken extreme measures to make 7 compatible with older applications. If something doesn't work, you can always re-install it in XP SP3 compatibility mode (or the settings that 7 will automatically provide for you) and it will work. I've even installed old drivers (for a Geforce MX videocard) made for XP on Windows 7 and they work flawlessly (except Aero, of course).

    Yes, it should work. However, I think you should consider moving up to 2010 when it comes out. Has a lot more templates and improvements, although many people hate the new "ribbon".

    I've got a brand new PC loaded with Windows7 and I actually haven't bother to upgrade any of my software. I'd say you should be just fine, especially considering that I'm using Office 2003 at this very moment with no problems whatsoever.

    Yes it runs fine. I MSO2003 on Win7 on one machine in my office. It even makes Office look better because it uses the Win7 style toolbars & menus.
