Re: Can I run Office XP and Office 2003 on the same machine?
Except for Outlook, you can easily run multiple versions on the same system.

After furious head scratching, Captain Infinity asked:
| I need to test the viability of upgrading our workstations from Office
| XP (2002) to Office 2003. It would be great if I could run both on
| the same machine and test the interoperability of documents and
| spreadsheets created by each version. My reseller tells me this is
| not possible, however.
|
| I'm not sure if I should believe him. I've been able to get my
| machine to do other tricks he has said were impossible. So I thought
| I'd ask you folks.
|
| Basically I'm asking if I can install and run both programs on one PC,
| running Windows XP Pro. Or will Office 2003 de-install or overwrite
| 2002? I don't see a need to actually have both instances running at
| the same *time*, but it would be nice to run one, create a document,
| save it, close the application, and then open and test the document
| in the other program.
|
| Thanks for any help!
