Office 2003 and Office 2007

[spiritualfields]

I've got a new computer with Vista Home Premium installed. Currently there
are no Office programs installed. What I have is the following:

Office 2007 Standard
Office 2003 versions of Access, Word, Excel, Outlook, FrontPage and Power
Point
Office 2002 Publisher

In order to get my Office 2003 versions of Access and FrontPage running,
I'll need to install Office 2002 first, because my 2003 Access and FrontPage
programs were upgrades from 2002.

My question is: in what order should I install my Office programs. 2007
standard first? Followed by customized installs of 2002 frontpage and Access
only, and then installing the upgrade versions of these two to 2003? What I
will end up with hopefully is:

2007 Word, Excel, Outlook, and Power Point
2003 Access and FrontPage

I also have 2000 PhotoDraw and 2002 Publisher (though I believe that these
are not strictly Office programs, and so am not too concerned about the
sequence of installation).

Regarding my Office programs, what order should I use in the installation.
2007 Standard first?

Oldest to newest. So 2002, then 2003, then 2007. See

Knowledge Base article discussing this in detail.
