2003 install is removeing existing 2007 - How to prevent this?
Chuck <grafis[ at ]gmail.com> 10/21/2008 3:51:35 PM
How can I prevent 2003 from uninstalling/overwritting/wrecking
existing Office 2007 installs?

I'm using the Custom Installation Wizard + setup.ini.
In CIW the doc says it will remove "all previous versions" listing 95-
XP(2002).

Thanks,
C

The recommended procedure is to install multiple version of software in the
order of their release.

I do not wish to install 2003 on machines already running 2007.

I am deploying Office 2003 to upgrade about 2,500 Office 2002 users,
we have 50 or so 2007 users.
I've found that 2003 unexpectedly uninstalls 2007
