Office installation

It is possible to upgrade off97 to offxp pro all the installation will be done by offxp pro i.e. uninstalling off97 and installing offxp. for this u have to purchase a upgrade version of offxp. if not u can always buy a new offxp and uninstall onlyoff97 and install offxp

In theory, yes you should be able to. MSKB articles Q290576 (http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q290576) and Q218861 (http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q218861) cover running multiple versions of Office onthe same PC. Windows XP has the capability to run applications in compatbility modes, so if something does not run right initially, try configuring the application for Windows 9x mode.

Note this is only a theory. You should probably check the Windows XP areas of Microsoft's website (http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/compatibility/default.asp). I did not see any Office suites other than XP listed in the Windows Catalog of compatible software.

The Upgrade Advisor (http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/pro/howtobuy/upgrading/advisor.asp) "checks your system hardware and software to see if it is ready for upgrade to Windows XP. Find out more about how to download it and use it."

Yes it will work I upgraded ten computers with XP and installed office 97. I also did this with 2000pro.
