Is it better than 2002?

Microsoft Office 95, 97, 2000, XP (2002), 2003 and 2007 all are fine -
depending on what you need. My bet would be that more people have
Office/Word 2003 than any other version at this time (given the length of
time it has been available and the likes.) Some are finding it difficult to
adjust to the 2007 versions menu system/etc. Which one you decide to use
will be entirely up to you and your needs.

(Do you share these documents with others? Do they edit them and pass them
back to you to edit them and return them and so on? What features of Word
do *you* need?)

I already have word 2000 from my last computer. I was also
wondering can I put word 2000 on my new vista computer? If not
...if I rebuild my current computer (if I rebuild my current
computer then I would take my brand new vista back) ....by rebuild
I mean put in a new hard drive, new pci express motherboard and new
processor...so in other words can I use my word 2000 and install it
on my rebuilt computer? I am confused about how transferable word
is.....

Do you have the installation media for Word 2000?
If so - install it in any one place you desire.

Did it come with the computer in question as part of Works?
