Default Office Setup for 1 user

I have 3 users on my computer. I am using Vista Business and office 2007.
2 of the three users use office 2003.

My question is this.
Is it possible to install 2003 for the other 2 users and 2007 just for me.

I know some programs allow yoou to install per user but don't know if it is
possible with office.

You need to read the terms of the end user license agreement (EULA) that
came with your software. Even versions of Office have different terms.

If you can't find it, you may be able to look it up he

the Computer Manufacturer

This is not A license issue as I bought all three copies and have the COA's.
I don't want excel 2007 to override the 2003 files and then again 2003 to
override the 2007 files.

You bought 3 copies of what? you only need a single copy of the two versions
Only a single instance of Outlook can be installed
2007 will become the default

But since 2007 can both read and generate Files in the old format why do you
need 2003?

The reason for the three copies is two machines came with 2003 on them and I
purchased 2007 separately
..
The reason I want to run the 2 versions is because the other 2 people do not
want to learn the 2007 excel.

And I need to make sure the workbooks that are on the 2003 machines look the
same on all three computers.
2007 has features that when displayed on 2003 systems they do not look the
same.

Sorry I may have given the wrong impression in the last message.
It is all one one computer not three.
Originally it was three PC's

You can install both versions of Office/Excel and the user profiles can pick
which one they prefer to use. You will want to save your worksheets as XLS
(compatibility mode), or by double-clicking the extension, the file
association will automatically launch Excel 2007.

I haven't tried this, but it is possible to run both versions as long as
your 2007 license is not an upgrade license. Microsoft does not recommend
it, but it's possible.

See if this helps:

Information about using 2007 Office suites and programs on a computer that
is running another version of Office

Frankly, you'll have fewer headaches if they can all use the same version.
