Also make SURE that you put them each in a different directory and program
group.  I use Office for 97 (it doesn't seem to offer a choice), but then
use Microsoft Office2K for 2K and Microsoft Office XP for XP.

Generally involves installing in the correct order (97 then 2K then XP).
And to
be safe, install the service packs for each after each app install (97 and
97
SPs, then 2K and 2K SPs, etc)

When installing 2K and XP, you will need to do a custom install and tell the
installer not to remove the previous version of access.

Also note that it is advisable to put shortcuts to each msaccess.exe where
you
can easily get them (ie for me they are in the quick launch toolbar on
Windows
2K), as each version of access claims the mdb extension automatically when
you
run it.
