2006 Pro does indeed owrk on Vista. The only issue I had with it was
updating the program and thus, downloading transactions, as only the latest
releases allow QB06 to dl transactions in Vista. I believe there is probably
some workaround that would allow the updates (perhaps manual updates...),
but I switched to 2007 as I don't have time at the moment to figure it out.
