Hi Thomas. Yes, you can install them both, just put them in separate
folders. (I'm currently running three versions on the same machine here.)
However, the only one you CANNOT run both versions of is Outlook, so don't
even try to do that or you will have more troubles than you want to deal
with. The other programs are fine tho...you can run both versions with
little problems (just don't let Access XP convert your databases to the 2002
version tho, or you won't be able to open them in Access 2000)

The rule of thumb is to always install the older version FIRST...so, install
2000, then when you install XP, do a custom install and you will be asked if
you want to replace the older version. Just say No.

In terms of I got office xp pro now on my system but due to certain
things my school is using, I need word, excel, powerpoint  to use the
vba as I am just learning on how to use it and I am confuse  when I am
back home though.

Any info will be greatly appreciated.
