Install Office 2k3 & 2k7 on same machine?

[tommyjeans]

Is it possible to install office 2003 AND office 2007 on the same machine?

I have 2003 right now and i'm not ready to loose it yet but would like to be
able to play with the 2007 as well

thanks

Except for Outlook yes. There are caveats - search this group for a list.

You might want to check out this TechTrax article. It provides details
on using multiple versions, from licensing to installation and
includes a few caveat workarounds.

Note! I just noticed the TechTrax server is down. If you get a 404 on
the link...try again a bit later. It IS there...just geeks messing
with servers have a temporary outage.
