Vista compatable w/ Office 2003

I recently purchased an new computer with vista premium installed. I was
installing my office 2003 and all seemed well except I am unable to open my
outlook it pops of an error telling me the operation failed. Is this a
compatibility issue or do I need to just reinstall the program.

Office 2003 (including Outlook) works fine on my Vista install.

I'd hold off that, I found some problems with Access, some forms refused
to load in either user or design mode after installing SP3. YMMV

O2K3 SP2 works fine though.
