Will Office 2000 work on Windows XP Pro 64bit? I cannot find any
documentation stating one way or another. All I found is that Office 2000 was
not TESTED with XP 64bit.

What part of "not TESTED" eludes your comprehension?

Yes.
You will have to use the 32 bit version of IE to install Office Updates, the
64 bit version doesn't work with the old Office Update site.

Og - Just because it wasn't TESTED doesn't mean it won't work. That's why I'm
here, asking the question from other users that may have tried it.

definitive "Yes" or "No" answer.
You also posted in an Office NG, rather than in a 64-bit XP newsgroup.
If there are users who have managed to make Office 2000 work on 64-bit XP,
they are far more likely to reside there than here. They will also be more
likely to be knowledgable of the some (if not all) of the pitfalls you are
likely to encounter.
