Project 2003 and 2000 on same computer?

[Guy Dillen]

I'm normally working with Project 2003 but my new customer is still
standardized on Project 2000. Can i install Project 2000 on the same machine
as 2003?
Will there be no conflicts with Project 2003 and/or Office 2003?

There's no conflict with Office 2003 and Project 2000 but you can't have
both Project 2000 and 2003 on the same computer. But don't despair - you
can exchange data files just fine - 2000 can open files from 2002/2003 and
vice versa. When opened in 2000 you won't see the new fields added at
2002/2003 but the data fields that are common to all versions will be
visible and populated as they should. So go ahead and use 2003 on your
computer, it won't inhibit you're communication with your client at all.
