WordPerfect 12, WordPerfect X3 and X4

Does anyone know if any of these versions of WordPerfect are Vista-compatible?

Re: WordPerfect 12, WordPerfect X3 and X4

You should visit the support web site of the manufacturer of
your old software and see if they are supported in Vista.
There may be new software updates available or new versions.

As far as software compatibility, please see:

Both X3 and X4 run fine on Vista. I personally run X3 under Vista
without problems

I'm not sure about 12, but I believe there are problems with it under
Vista.
