Well, it would be helpful if you told us what version of Microsoft Office we're dealing with here. Please be specific.

Vista may just be more picky. I know I run my MS Office 97 on Xp with no problem at all.

There are work-around solutions for Office 2003, and maybe earlier versions. Of course, hard to suggest anything with no information.

There is no 2006 version of Office. Might want to check that again.

Office 2000 and 2003 work perfectly in Vista. There is no workaround.
