    Office 2003 & 2007 on same computer

    I have MS Office 2003 & 2007 installed on my computer. I am just beginning to
    adjust to 2007 and would like 2003 to be my default program when I open a
    file. Is there a setting I can use to ensure that when I open a file created
    in one of the MS programs that the file will open in 2003? Currently I have
    to open the 2003 program before opening the file.



    Thank you

    Well this group is for dicussions about programming using
    Microsoft's .Net languages, so you'd be better off in a
    windows group.

    However couldn't you just change the default program for
    ..doc files to open with to 2003?
