MS OFFICE 2003 AND 2007 ON SAME MACHINE

I HAVE MS OFFICE 2003 RUNNIG ON MY MACHINE NOW. I WANT TO INSTALL MS OFFICE
2007. I HAVE STUDENTS WHO USE BOTH VERSIONS, SO I NEED TO KEEP BOTH RUNNING.
CAN I DO THIS AND IF SO, WHAT SPECIAL STEPS DO I HAVE TO TAKE?

certainly you can do it - when you install 2007 AFAIK you will get an option
to either keep the existing Office or uninstall as part of the install
process. You can't have two versions of outlook though.

And unstick your caps lock - it's the Usenet equivalent of SHOUTING.....

An alternative would be to load the filters for 2003
