Multiple versions of excel ...
The easiest way is to install the earliest version first,etc
I have xl95,xl97sr2,xl2002 all installed.
You can go into folder optionsfile typesfind xlschange to browse for the
exe.

I have Office2003 loaded, I discovered the error of my ways when farming
out
VBA that I develop to PCs running eariler versions.
I just loaded Office2000 so I have a test platform for trying earlier
versions... but All of my Start program icons are all messed up. I never
can
tell which version I am going to get... (kind of like Forest Gump's
chocolates)
I am running Win2000 with SP4...
What is the best/simplest way to:
1) make a folder in StartProgramsOffice2000(show each office 2000 app)
2) make a folder in StartProgramsOffice2003(show each office 2003 app)
3) default the xls (or all office extensions) files so that when launching
it will automatically use 2003.
Or is there a better way to set up my VBA development environment?
I can't seem to make a new folder in STARTPROGRAMS_______ is that
controlled by the registry? Is there some sequence to redo the Installs
so
that I can accomplish seperating the versions?
