    Microsoft are well known for their efforts in backward compatability.

    Third party developers, on the other hand...

    Apologies if this one has already been done.

    Does anyone know if other MS software is compatible with Vista. e.g. will XP software run under Vista or is it a try it and see situation ?

    Thats odd it looks like the posts are reversed I assume Aidan is replying to UrbanFox's post.

    Aidan nailed it anyway it's up to the third party vendor most popular applications have been updated or are probably in the process. There are things you can do make software that doesn't work co-operate under Vista with a compatibility mode but it doesn't always work for everything that refuses to run or sometimes workaround are found entirely separate from it.

    The Upgrade Advisor will do an okay job of finding incompatible apps.

    This may also help.
