Can you make a Rule to test the absence of words?
Outlook 2003. Is there a way to create a rule that tests for the absence of
words or phrases? For example, "move the email to x folder if the subject does NOT include "word y".

Yes, you can construct a rule with no conditions, a move action, and an "except if subject contains word y" exception condition.
