I currently have office 2003, do I need office 97 prof edition?

Answer 1

Take a look at the Office 2003 programs that you have and use. You do not need any duplicates.

Access 97 - 2003
Word 97 - 2003
Excel 97 - 2003
Outlook 97 - 2003
PowerPoint 97 - 2003
Publisher 97 - 2003

Many of these files are not backward compatible. If you use some files under Office 97 that you have NOT upgraded, consider that the layout may change slightly. Some significant changes happened in Microsoft Publisher, as well as Microsoft Access. But you probably have upgraded everying already.

Good luck

Answer 2

Your question is not clear. I have two computers. My new one has Office 2003. Kept the old, with Office 97.

Obviously, Office 2003 will open 97, but if you use 97 to open 2003, some features may not be compatible.

If it is necessary for you to work in both, when in 2003, go to Tools, Options, Compatibility. Set it as compatible with 97.

Answer 3

there is a massive difference between 2003 and 1997 version.
since u might be thinking about a different problem, since if u try and open something in wrote in the 2003 version on a different machine which has the 97' it might not open.
in that case u just choose save as and then change the file type to a lower version.
