I installed Office 2007 on a server where I already had Office 2003 installed. I use Office 2003 (specifically Excel) on that machine quite a bit. this morning I just double clicked on a spreadsheet and it was loaded in Excel 2007 (Office 2007 apparently replaced my file type mappings). I checked the task manager memory usage and it was 20.6 mb for Excel with that specific spreadsheet. I then closed Excel 2007, opened Excel 2003 and then loaded the same spreadsheet. The memory usage was 10.5 mb. And BTW, there was no noticeable delay switching between the two versions, nor did it request a disk etc. I will do more testing on that subject later when the server isn't working heavily on SQL Server stuff.
