Do the oldest version first and install in seperate folders. When you install the latest version, choose to "Keep older version".

you can actually install multiple office versions, but not necessarily in an order. i am using both office xp and office 97, with office xp installed first. make sure when you install the other office version, you install it in a separate directory (ex. \Program Files\MS Office XP and \Program Files\MS Office 97). Problems can be encountered with Access being seen as not licensed. To work around this problem, rename the hatten.ttf font file in your %systemroot%\fonts folder before installing the other version of office and restore it after installation. For more information, follow this url:
