Will MSDE 2000 be supported on Vista?

[Patrick]

I do not know who Eric Miller is, but according to this link MSDE 2000 will
not be supported on Vista. This is a major impact to many software
applications. Anyone heard any more on this?

Any application using MSDE will not work, that is the fact. If you want to
use a MSDE app with Vista you are out of luck.

If you are the maker of a MSDE app you can check the upgrade guide

My only thought of this is that if you want it to work, upgrade. If you want
old app to work, don't upgrade to vista. It is after all your choice.

What is MS planning on doing with Small Business Accounting 2006? During
it's installation routine, it attempts to install MSDE by default and fails.
