Thanks Don,
I may try that. I mostly use word and occasionally powerpoint, excell, and
publisher. I have had the program crash on me "Word" sometimes while waiting
for a file to open and even had to shut down and restart the computer a few
times. I am not sure though this "offices pro" will run ok on vista 64 bit
but will have a look and see.
