Yes, it is compatible with Vista and many Vista users have installed it. The procedure for installing OpenOffice is to download the latest Windows version from www.openoffice.org. Then double click on the downloaded file. This will start the installation process that takes you through a few configuration panels, where you can generally use the default values. When the installation is complete, you should have an OpenOffice folder & icons in your Start menu. You can then use the icons to start the various OpenOffice components. If you have done this and are still having problems, please describe what you are doing and results, including any error messages. -- Use OpenOffice.org
