Hi Ingit,

Although Office does a fair amount of LCID
(Language Code ID) compartmentalizing when
installing Office in the newer versions
Localized editions of MS Office contain many of
the same file names but with different and sometimes
incompatible content. It's generally not
a good idea to mix and match 2 different language
versions without dual booting, usually into a different
partition.

can 2 copies of office be installed on the same hard drive. a German
version is installed and an English version needs to be installed. only 1
hard drive available. I don't wish to partition.

TIA >>
