Not to sound bad, but you can install any version of office onto XP if you
want, you can run Office 95 if you want to, I know several people who do,
they have proprietary databases that only work with the version of Access
from 95.
If software can run under about any Windows 95-2000, it will more than
likely run under XP but not 2000. I have some games I can't use on 2000 but
that' okay
