Installation

[Guest]

I have Office 2003 installed and running great. No powerpoint however. I have
Powerpoiint on "Office 2000 Standard" but I am afraid to install it because I
may lose Outlook 2003 because when I run the install it wants to install the
entire 2000 program. . Can I simply install Powerpoint off the "2000" disc
without damaging the "2003" installation?


Thanks

You can, I have 2000, xp and 2003 installed as I need to check that
presentation I write will work on all.

Use the links from the others, but generally speaking, do a custom install
off the 2000 disks so you can choose to install just PPT.

You can have the two running more or less happily together, but I've always
installed older versions first, followed by newer ones. If you have your 2003
CD handy, you could always reinstall it if installing PPT2000 causes any
problems. If you don't have the CD, I'd be reluctant to chance it. Then again,
I'm a wimp.

I saw no place in teh custom install where I could select just PPT. That was
the problem. Any ideas where and when that 'choice' happens? Did I mis it? I
chose "custom install" but no choice ever presented tslef...

I don't know -- at some point, you should get to a place where you can
choose what programs to install.

You may just get a list in Office 2000. It looks almost like a folder
list -- you'd have to go through and turn off (make "not available") the
stuff you don't want and set the PPT stuff to run from hard drive.
