How can I do this?

On the down arrow, change it to not available, on the programs you dont want to install.

Everything else like what?? If you select not available for the other programs, they dont/wont install at all

When you start Office's Setup.exe, make sure you select "Keep these programs". Select them all except Publisher. Step though the wizard and click install. If it says Upgrade, you've done something wrong :)

639895 2008-02-13 19:45:00 Good luck trying to use 2 versions of Office at once.

2007 installs a particular file, that messes up earlier versions. (2003 anyway. not sure about earlier).

If you install 2007 to a different directory it would have a better chance of succeeding,

I use 2003 and 2007 alternatively all the time with no issues. I just installed Office Enterprise the normal way and told it to keep all of my 2003 components as well. It works fine.
