older version and newer version of excel

[Nanofish]

My sister has 2007 excel on her laptop. she is used to an older
version...98. Can the 98 version be loaded on her laptop even though it has
the 2007 version? I was thinking it could be loaded in a separate file
folder. Will they conflict somehow? thanks for any resonse.

I don't have version 98, so I can't answer your question directly, but I do
have both XL2003 and XL2007 loaded on my desktop with no conflicts between
them, if that helps any. I suspect there would be no problems with XL98
either.

If you mean Excel 97, I have that loaded with 2007 on mine.

Just for Info
XL98 was a MAC version.

Thanks for the info. In my response, I just went with what the OP posted...
I know there is no XL2007 for Mac, so I assumed that when the OP said XL98,
he was stating the correct version number for a Windows version of Excel...
I am not familiar with the earlier version numbers for Excel (and was too
lazy to check<g>), but I see from Bob's post that the OP must have meant
XL97.
