Installing Office 2003 and 2007 together?

[iteachit]

Is it possible to install both Office 2003 and 2007 on one machine. Both are
the Office Professional Editions. Need both for teaching purposes and would
like to put on one computer. Already have 2003, but waiting to install 2007.
OS is XP with SP2

When you install 2007 it will ask you if you wish to 'upgrade' your existing
installation, if you select no, it will install in parallel
NB You can have only a single instance of OL installed, You might also want
to amend any shortcuts first, eg Word>Word03 as they may be overwritten.
Using explorer to open a file will open it in 07 version.

In addition to what DL said, if you need 2 versions of Outlook, installing Office 2007 on a virtual PC will allow you to have complete versions of each Office Suite.

Thanks for the help...I kinda thought that would be the case in the "Custom"
install
areas as is usually the case. Doesn't hurt to check though... You folks are
super...keep up the good work.
