Hi Dale,
The installer looks for Microsoft Project 2002 and refuses to install if
only Project 2003 is installed.
Project Pro 2003 allows you to compare two versions of the same project
stored on a Project Server. I have not discovered any way to have it
compare a project on the server with one that is not.
I'm still looking.....
