Installing Office XP and 200 prof. together?

[Guest]

I'd like to run Office XP and 2000 professional side by side on the
same machine. I'd also prefer not to use different users or to dual
boot. I train in both and need to prepare screenshots.

A post in 2002 suggested that this would work, but recommended
dual-booting. Unfortunately MS seems to have moved or deleted the two
KB articles suggested in the earlier thread.

Has anyone got practical experience or advice on this. All comments
gratefully accepted!

TIA
Graham

Hi Graham,

While you can use multiple editions of
MS Office, you can only have one version of MS Outlook,
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290576?FR=1
so if you're training, you may want to
consider using dual booting,
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/292580?FR=1or
using MS's Virtual PC product as a setup base
http://microsoft.com/virtualpc
or other user profile or imaging techniques and products
as approaches as well.

If the training includes advanced work on COM Add-ins
or Automation there can be other considerations such as
the ones in this article:
