Microsoft office 2002 XP compatability

You're still using that old version? It must be a nightmare when people send you documents since they're more than likely in the 2007+ format. I have no idea if it will run in Windows 8, but I don't try to run versions of Office or other major software suites that are that old.

Welcome to Eight Forums, chillydip.

LOL! I use Office 2000 in 7. I tried loading it in 8, but wouldn't load. You can try. It might take. Just make sure you're following EUA.

Welcome to you as well, although I see you joined last month.

Just to let you know. Older Office suites will read newer Doc files with Microsoft Office Word Viewer one can download from MS for free.
