[AccessD] Office 2003 and 2007

I did have issues with Access 2003 and Access 2007 so I uninstalled 2003.
While I had no issues with mixing earlier versions.  As another poster
talked about, I just put 97 and 2003 into a VM for when I need to use those
versions.

The experiences I've read on the list indicate that there is no problem
running different versions of office on the same machine.  When it asks
where to install it, install to a different folder than the previously
installed version(s).  I've run 2 and three versions of office on the same
box.

However, I've also read that you should install them earliest to latest.
Not sure why - dll conflicts I think.  So If it doesn't work, I'd uninstall
both, and reinstall 2003 first then 2007.

Hi List,
I have Office 2007 installed on laptop.
I would like to keep it and ALSO put office 2003 on at the same time.
IS this possible?
IF not, can I at least get Access 2003 on it.
I do not want to remove Office 2007.

Thanks for any quick pointers.

Max
