I run 2003 & 2007 on the same machine. The only thing I don't like it always uses 2007 as the default. When I ran 97 & 2003 on the same PC it depended on which one you used last. You can't run both Outlooks, you have to choose to uninstall it when you add 2007 (I prefer 2007 Outlook). Sometimes when I use 2003 & open something in 2007 it wants to run setup. It doesn't take long (sort of), but it gets annoying. This mostly seems to happen when I open Word. I used the default location when I installed. I noticed you installed 2007 in its own directly. Virginia One of my clients uses 2007 (the database from hell guy) and wants me to send stuff to him in 2007 Excel. So I installed Office 2007 on that machine in its own directory. Office 2003 was already installed. I allowed 2007 to uninstall 2003 Outlook (I don't use outlook anymore anyway). So then I do the install shuffle. It was reasonably fast! As in 30 seconds to open 2007 after 2003. Six seconds to open 2003 after 2007. 3.0 GHZ Quad core AMD, 16 gig ram, Windows 2003 x64. I was expecting a couple of minutes. -- John W.
