Office Profesional & Office XP

[Linda L]

I have Office 2000 Profesional installed complete with Publisher. I am about to embark on a course from The Learning Library for Office XP for which I have been provided with Office XP Standard, for Students and Teachers. If I install Office XP Standard will it overwright Office 2000 and Publisher or is it possible to run both versions. I only require Office XP to use with the course material. Thank you in anticipation of your help. Linda L

Linda,

While Microsoft does not recommend the practice, it is possible to install
two (or more) versions of MS Office on the same computer. Here is a link
from the MS KB with information on how to do it with Office 97 and 2000:

The principles should be the same for 2000 - XP. Just note that you are
allowed only *one* version of Outlook on your computer.
