Office 2003 College version

My daughter received Office 2003 when she was accepted at
her college. She wants to install it on my computer,
which I am currently using Office 2000. If I understand
correctly, this will replace my Office 2000? Will I
still be able to access my old documents after installing
Office 2003, or should I back everything up first? I
just want to know how much time I should allot to doing
this before we get started with it.

And when she buys a new computer will she be able to
install the Office 2003 on there also?

Thanks in advance!
Patty

I presume you are talking about the academic version. Please note that
this version cannot be used for commercial purposes, such as working on your
work files at home. Having said that, have her read the EULA in any Office
program's Help-About. The full EULA should say whether she can install it
on your computer. Also, if she gets a new computer, she will have to
uninstall it from the old before putting it on the new and will most likely
have to use the telephone method to activate it.
