2003 and 2007 together?

[D]

I was able last year to purchase Office 2003 professional edition at a
reduced price becuase of being a student. I'm considering upgrading to 2007
Student edition as this is all my budget will allow. My question is this; I
use frontpage 2003 a fair bit, now is it still possible to retain that whilst
say using powerpoint 2007 or will I loose the ability to use any of my 2003
office apps once I upgrade.

Many thanks
David

Programs like Access and Frontpage will still be there, but you will have
difficulties with Outlook 2003 and the new docx files of 2007 as Outlook 2007
is not part of the student deal.

Outlook has nothing to do with the docx format. That is Word, which is
part of the Student Edition.

I installed Office 2007 without uninstalling Office 2003. The install
warned me that I could not have both Outlook 2007 and 2003 installed
at the same time, so when installing Office 2007, I did a custom
install and de-selected Outlook 2007. Now I have Outlook 2003 and both
Office 2003 and 2007 installed. I did go into the Options for both
Word and Excel and make the 2003 format the default instead of the new
XML format.

Using Word as mail editor, or using Send to Recipient.

There is no "Word as email editor" in Office 2007. Send to works fine.
