Running two versions of Office 2003 on the same PC

G

I currently have a PC running Windows XP SP2 (Dutch language version) and
Office 2003 Home Edition (also in Dutch language). I now have an
opportunity, via my employee and the Microsoft Home Use Program, to purchase
a copy of Office 2003 Professional.

Since I share the computer with my Dutch wife, and I'm English, ideally I
would like to purchase the English language version, install that on the PC.
and set XP up so that when I use my account I can run the English language
version, and when she users her account, she can run our existing Dutch
language version.

So, my question is, is this possible, and if so, how??
Thanks in advance!
Gary

One method that might work is to do a dual boot (multiboot) installation of
Windows XP. Then one partition could have the Dutch version and the other
the English version.
If you currenly have only one hard drive and it has only one partition,
rather than repartitioning the hard drive, you might consider purchasing a
second hard drive for the second installation of Windows XP. It is my
understanding that you only need one Windows XP license for a dual boot
configuration. Good luck!
