PD v.2 Work With Vista (RTM) and Office 12 (RTM)?

I would be very appreciative if someone who's installed the final of Vista
and/or Office 12 could confirm to me that Photodraw v.2 works ok with them.
PD is important enough to me that I'll skip upgrading in January if it
doesn't work with either Vista or the new Office.

Thanks,
Kirk

Wow! I am amazed that there is someone out there that feels the same
as I do about PD2. See my site: www.customshots.com. All my work is
done with PD2. If it isn't supported in the new operating system, I'll
have to learn Photoshop, which I have been trying to do now for the
last 5 years or just stop upgrading. I have too many templates that I
created to just 'start over' . Without Photo Draw, I have no business.
If you EVER find out the answer to that question, would you kindly
drop me a note at: diane@customshots.com? I will do the same for you.
Thank you!
Diane

Diane,
I looked at your site. Talk about being embedded into PhotoDraw! No wonder
you say you'd have no business without it.

I have used both PD and Photoshop for many years, and to me they are wildly
different. I use them for completely different purposes: PD for quick,
flashy gfx (drawing heavily on its clipart), and PS for careful, detailed
retouching.

To me, PD is perfect for what you do and PS would be completely unsuitable.

If at some time PD should no longer serve you, rather than switching (at
high cost!) to PS, I would look into Real-Draw Pro at www.mediachance.com.
It is inexpensive and works very much like PD.

Sincerely,
Walter Donavan

P.S.: I will not be upgrading to Vista and so cannot answer your question.
Sorry. However, I suspect PD will still work OK.
