Mixing Applications: MS Works & MS Office XP Pro

New laptop comes with "Works" which has Word, Spread Sheet, Calendar,
Database... ect. I want to Add stuff from Office XP Professional (ie
FrontPage, Access... so forth). I noticed that the Office XP wants to
default at the same folder that the Works is installed too (C:\Program
Files\Microsoft\Office|...

Can these be mixed together or should I change the Office XP installation.
Changing the folder will undoubtedly allow for duplicate installations of
certain things (Office Tools).

Thanks

Officexp will install, by default, to a version specific folder in the
......\Office group.
Probably your only difficulty may be if if the versions of Word are
different.
In any case if installing Officexp pro why not uninstall Works?
