No issues with Office 2007 and Win7 on my main pc and no issues with older Office 2003 on my htpc with Win7. Note: Office 2010 is now available and about same price as 2007. Make sure you get it with 3 allowable installs/pc's (typically not if you just buy a license key and no disk/box).

Hi Cassandra;

I purchased Office Professional 2007 and when I go to install on win 7, 64 bit, it says that I need adminstrative access. Is this program compatable with win 7?

Hi Cassandra;

I successfully installed Office 2007 when signed in as an administrator. However, all my other programs disappeared. Now I have to constantly switch from admininstrator to my profile to use the other programs. Is there a way to combine the two profiles so I can use all the programs?

Thank you :D
