Default Does an upgrade replace a prior version or is it in addition to?

Hi -

I need excel 2007 for a limited purpose. There are 30 other people in my
office who have excel 2003.

If I get 2007, does it replace my current excel 2003 on my computer. I am
trying to avoid everyone having to upgrade if I upgrade. I know there is a
backward compatability patch in '07, but that would mean everyone would have
to install that patch.

So can I have both excel 2003 and 2007 on my computer?

Thanks!

sam

Hi Sam

No problem. When you install, just say don't remove older versions.
I have all versions of Xl from 97 onward quite happily co-residing on my
machine.
