Installin Office 2003

[Richard Illingworth]

I have a partitioned hard drive with Win XP Pro on the C
partition and Windows 2003 Server on the E partition. All
my data is on the D partition. My question is what is the
best way to install Office 2003 on both opperating
systems?

Is it best to just install Office on the C and the E
drive in which case both vertions of OUtlook run
separatly or can I install to a certain location where by
Outlook when opened in eithr opperating system uses the
same pst file for e-mail?

Of course you can't! You will need to install twice - each doesn't know the
other exists!

YOu can install Office on both partitions but to have Outlook use the same
..pst file, move your current .pst file to the drive/location of your choice.
Open Outlook on each partition - then close it and delete the new .pst file
it creates. Open Outlook again and when it complains, point it to the .pst
file you saved. Open the other partition and and do the same for finding
the .pst file.

There, they now share the same .pst file.
