Tom, You can run any product you choose, Place only the Icons from that
release on you desk top if that is what you want. I ran 2003 and 2007 Icons at the same time, until I purchased the 2007 Pro. Maybe I'm not undrstanding the problem? -- William<"M" Using 2007 "Tom" wrote: I have Microsoft Excel 2003 Tial & Microsoft XP Professional (with Excel) on my computer.

Thanks for the reply William.
Here is my problem.....from another angle. In Windows Explorer my Excel files used to open using Excel from Microsoft XP Professional. As a result of downloading recent "Microsoft Updates", the only way I can open the same files is using Microsoft Excel 2003 Trial. I need to find a way to put Microsoft XP Professional back in charge.

Excel
Locate the excel.exe that's associated with xl2002.
Then click on windows|start button|Run type the path to that excel.exe: "c:\program files\msoffice\whatevergoeshere\excel.exe" /regserver You may need the double quotes if the filename (with path) has spaces--they won't hurt if you use them and they're not required. This re-registers excel with windows. And the last program registered (or installed) should be used as the default program when double clicking. Tom wrote: Thanks for the reply William.
