FrontPage: Upgrades/Vista/Non-profits

I'm about to purchase FrontPage 2003 and don't know what I need to do to get
it to work on Vista. Is there an upgrade that I need to load?

Also, does Microsoft have any type of discounts when the software is being
used by a non-profit? I'm going to be maintaining a web site for a Boy Scout
troop. I really don't want to pump a lot of my personal money into this, but
the site is alreay in FrontPage, the alternative, less expensive software
doesn't seem to be as well known by my potential supporters, and I don't have
financial backing from the Troop. Any suggestions?

Yes, Microsoft does have a program for non profits.

This might be something like what you're after:
http://www.microsoft.com/australia/...munity/sdp.mspx

The link gives info on a scheme that applies to Microsoft Australia but I'm
sure Microsoft in your country (US? UK? whereever?) might have a similar
scheme.

The "upgrade" is under 90 bucks in the states.

Check out TechSoup. We are a 501 (c) (3) and Microsoft has a great program
with them.
