One of our office computers has a copy of FrontPage2002 installed and heavily used. I've been asked to install a copy of our Office2000 in this same machine (Primarily to read & write *.xl files). My fear... will installing the older Office -over- the newer FP trash FrontPage? Inquiring minds (and me too) want to know. Thanks in advance to any and all feedback.

When you install Office, check the custom install option and then uncheck FrontPage from the list of options. Once you're done, check to see if FP is working OK. It may not as there are some files that might get overwritten. If that's the case, reinstall FP2002 and you should be OK. If there is still a problem, uninstall both. Install Office without FP, then install FP2002. That ought to work. _____________________________ If it ain't broke..... fix it until it is. GAWDS Now where did I put that Doctype?

I shot it to a different install directory. Been this way for over a year now. Take care, Brian _____________________________ (in reply to jaybee)

I'm not sure how tightly linked the Office shared files are as I always disable those features. It may be OK but it may not which is why I've given the various scenarios. Fingers crossed for the easy way. _____________________________ If it ain't broke..... fix it until it is. GAWDS Now where did I put that Doctype? (in reply to Reflect)
