Will FP2003 coexist w/ Office XP?

[Lee B.]

I would like to install FP 2003. Will it coexist with Office XP?

I'm using Office XP which I don't feel the need to to upgrade.

Is this a recommended install scenario? What will I give up by running
FP2003 with Office XP?

Select the custom install option and keep all prior applications, and
install in a different folder.

Frontpage is and always will be an "Office" product - although not necessary sold
with the "Office" bundled packs.

I thought "Office" was MS's collective name for all their software, such as Word,
Publisher and so on whether sold as a bundled product or separately.

I have gotten WIN ME to work with a demo copy
of Front Page 2000, which expires in a week or so.
I am not sure I'll be able to buy FrontPage 2000 here,
and wonder if I will get problems if I get FrontPage 2002.

I am of course concerned about the server part. I used a suggestion
posted on this list by someone and manged to get ME to work
with updates directly from FrontPage.

Obviously I do not want to install anything, but Front Page itself,
anybody have any idea if I'll be able to get it to work without
having to tweak in the server part again?

FP2002 will work on Windows ME.

If I get it and install it it won't change
anything with the tweaked server I managed to
get to function with ME? I remember I had to do
something special to get FrongPage 98 to work
with ME, and wondered if I would have to do
something special with frontPage 2000 as well.

FP2002 with work with the PWS under Windows ME, however the FP2002
extensions are not supported.

And what does that mean. That I would not be able
to publish directly from FrontPage?

You will still be able to publish with FrontPage; you just won't be able to
use any of the features in your web site that require the FP2002 server
extensions: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q281532

Thanks to you and Thomas, I then think it will work for me.
