Can I Have Both FP 2003 and FP 2002 Installed?

[Auerbach]

I've Frontpage 2003, deleting the prior installation of Frontpage 2002. Is
there any technical reason why I cannot have both versions of Frontpage
installed? I like '03, but find it handles themes awkwardly, and would
prefer to have the earlier version available for some sites.

When you install (Custom) you get an option to keep the prior version and select a location other that the default
- do not install the common MSO tools if you have other versions of MS Office running

PS
Although it will work, running both versions (especially in a single site) will potentially cause you problems and is not
supported - recommend w/ you stick w/ 1 version per site

For upgrading your older themes in FP2003 see
