[mso] Re: Installing Office 2003 - Advice reqd.

I've got all kinds of versions on/off this system and the only problem I've
discovered is that Rocky get trashed on me now and then...which is annoying
when I get a message saying I don't have any character installed...when I
have them all. But I suspect THAT is part of my problem...because I also
have all the agents installed, too. So it's probably due to those
troublemakers...which wouldn't be a problem in your case.

No need to uninstall anything...just install 2003 in a separate dir and as
was already said, you can't have two OLs running, so that will have to be an
upgrade...no real choice in the matter...one of the other. 

You will notice a long delay when opening a different version, however. This
is due to the registry having to reset to the other version...so prepare to
wait a bit when you open one after having the other just opened.

Potentially, it would be useful to me to be able to run both  versions,
installing 2003 to another directory.  I have no idea,  however, if that's a
wise move!



Another lady I know has at least 2 versions,possibly all 3 on one machine,
so it should be fine
