candlecrazyinwv Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 Sorry if this is long....I bought a new computer this weekend and It has windows vista. I also bought Microsoft Home and Student 2007. I needed Microsoft word and all those type of programs for my candle stuff. Anyways, So now I am trying to learn a whole new version of WORD. I had 2003 version on my old computer. I use word templates from the site that I buy my labels from (brownkraftlabels.com) her templates only support 97-2003 WORD. Does Anyone know how to make these templates work in WORD 2007? Just wondeirng if anyone has had this issue. I make all my own labels so of course I need to print with those templates. When I try to print them it gives me error code on my printer. It will print everything but her templates. Hope I explained this clear enough.I stil have my software for the WORD 2003 but it says its for WindowsXP (my older computer) Does anyone know if I can install this on Windows Vista? TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grama Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 Sorry, can't help you with that but have you tried the Avery download for making your labels. You can set up your templates to be any size you need them. That is what I use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brenda (OH) Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 I bought a new computer June '07 and it has Vista also. Like you I didn't much care for the newer version of the 2007 Microsoft office package. Only used the trial version . . .I have MS 2000 and it loaded fine for me. Not sure about the 2003 version but I would give it a shot at trying to download it, can't hurt to try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

candlecrazyinwv Posted September 12, 2008 Author Share Posted September 12, 2008 I took that computer back to Sams yesterday and I will never own another computer with Vista again. I didnt need another computer just wanted to have a new update one! LOL Like my husband told me yesterday "if it aint broke dont fix it" so I am back to using my original computer and using my new printer and the labels are up and running fine!!!!
