| 1122428 | 2010-07-26 05:55:00 | Is it possible to run both Office 2000 and 2010 on the same computer without conflict? I expect that I would need heaps of memory, space and power if it's possible to do this. To explain why I need to do this - Only Office 2000 includes 'Front Page' which I use daily. I do not wish to purchase 'Expression Web" (unless I have to!) as I am quite satisfied with 'Front Page'. However I would like to update to a newer Office programme for 'Word' - in particular. Can anyone advise? Thanks. |

| 1122429 | 2010-07-26 05:58:00 | Should be able to as long as they're installed to different directories e.g C:/program files/Microsoft/Office10 and C:/program files/Microsoft/Office0 try the trial (or the beta if it's still up). Then if it works buy the media-less version (just the cd key) to save some money and so that you don't have to re install it (could cause problems). Or see below |

| 1122430 | 2010-07-26 05:59:00 | You can do that as an upgrade OK and it will leave Frontpage alone. You can't have two versions of Outlook running but you can have two of everything else. | Snorkbox (15764) | ||
| 1122431 | 2010-07-26 05:59:00 | You should be able to. Just try the 2010 Microsoft Office trial and see if it works before buying it :) Microsoft Download: office.microsoft.com |

| 1122433 | 2010-07-26 06:03:00 | Can you get frontpage standalone instead of in the office suite? However i can confirm that you can have office 2000 and 2010 running at the same time, and you don't even need that much memory (unless your opening huge excel files etc.) |

| 1122434 | 2010-07-26 06:11:00 | If your using frontpage as a web development program and can't get it to work with office 10 I recommend moving to dreamweaver or a free alternative like NVU, unless there is a specific reason for using Frontpage... | icow (15313) | ||
| 1122435 | 2010-07-26 07:52:00 | Office 2000 and Office 2010 should install into different directories, and therefore I don't forsee any conflicts to occur. Cheers :) |
