to install Microsoft Office 2003 why must I uninstall Microsoft Wo

[Hyacinth P]

I purchased a new computer with Microsoft works preinstalled. I have since
purchased Office 2003 student and teacher edition. The salesman told me to
uninstall microsoft works before I install Office 2003. Can you tell me why?
If I uninstall Works will I be able to access my documents done in Works?

Hi Hyancinth,

Do you have MS Works or MS Works Suite? MS Works suite
includes MS Word 2002, which may be a bit redundant if
you're going to be using MS Word 2003 from MS Office 2003.

If you have MS Works Suite you can separately uninstall
MS Word 2002 from Add/Remove Programs in the Windows Control
Panel and still leave the MS Works programs intact and continue
to use both Office and Works as complimentary sets of programs.

If listed in Add/Remove Programs you may want to uninstall the
MS Works Add-in (for Word/Office) as it can cause some odd behavior
from time to time.
