Re: How Many Versions of Office Can be Installed and Used on One XP SP3 Workstation?

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

The only problem -- and it is more of an annoyance - is that whenever I switch versions and go back
to 2007 the particular product goes through what it says is an installation but is probably just
resetting registry entries.

A work around for this in Word was mentioned elsewhere in the thread but I would rather wait the 15
or 20 seconds than bypass the re-registration.

Got everything installed:
Office 2000 Pro <w/o Outlook>
Office 2002 Pro <w/o Outlook>
Office 2003 Pro <w/o Outlook>
Office 2007 Ultimate <w Outlook>

Cycling through Windows Update was painful. Had to do it a few times for
each version as some
patches don't show up until prior patches are installed. Everybody seems
to be working.

Install earliest version first, Office2k, install this to a version

folder, omit the installation of Outlook
Then run MS Update
You may wish to ammend shortcuts to be version specific

Repeat the process with next version, allthough by default later versions
install to a version specific folder, Without installing Outlook

Finally install Office 2007 including Outlook (If required)

I need to be able to use:
Office 2000 Pro
Office XP Pro
Office 2003 Pro
Office 2007 Ultimate

Is it possible to install all of them on one Windows XP Pro SP3
workstation without them stepping on
each other?
