Appearance-wise, you can make Vista look a lot like XP.

When I started using it full-time, a bit over a year ago, I tried to
leave it the way it was, but I made a bunch of changes.  Now, I make
almost no changes after installing it (I'm on at least the 3rd
install now).

Go to Windows Update and check the updates available to be sure that
you've gotten any compatibility updates.  Also check the Microsoft
KnowledgeBase to see if it says anything about WP and Vista.

This sounds like you might be saving the file to a location that you
shouldn't be.

The commercial StarOffice is available; go to http://pack.google.com.
Be sure to DEselcect everything except what you want.
