Windows 10: Install & Run Office 2016 and Office 2007 concurrently ?

I need to run the older version (2007) and the newer version (2016) of Office concurrently. I was planning to install all of office 2007 and Office 2016 WITHOUT the Outlook application.

Can anyone please help me with this? Is this possible? What should I install first; the older or newer version ?

Thanks in advance for all assistance.

Regards,
Mike

Will office 2007 run in Windows 10?

Yes, Office 2007 works just fine on Windows 10, make sure you install the latest Service Pack and updates after installing.

Which versions of Microsoft Office work on Windows 10?

The following versions of Microsoft Office with the latest Service Packs have been confirmed to be compatible with Windows 10:

• Office 2016 Preview
• Office 2013/Office 365
• Office 2010 with exception Office Starter 2010
• Office 2007

Older versions of Office such as Office 2000, Office 2003 and Office XP are not certified compatible with Windows 10 but might work using compatibility mode.

Office 2010 and Office 2016 CAN run concurrently (not outlook though)

Hi folks

No problem running things like EXCEL 2016 and EXCEL 2010 concurrently.






Outlook 2010 and Outlook 2016 both work (but one at a time)

so if transitioning to Office 2016 you don't need to uninstall Office 2010 first.

Note though if you do uninstall Office 2010 after installing office 2016 you'll have to install 2016 again as there's a missing .dll file when you start up applications.

However I'm happy for the moment to have both on this system --especially as there's some quirky happenings with outlook 2016 whereas everything is perfect in Outlook 2010.

Note also if you start an excel session say office 2010 and then another one excel 2016 the 2nd session is marked as workbook 2 etc.

one use for this also is to have office in 2 different languages so you don't need to switch each time you want to change languages --the sort of things I do there's no difference in functionality for me with Office 2010 or 2016 -- 2016 has more cloud and groupware / collaboration corporate sort of stuff which I can't be bothered with anyway. Skype works fine for meetings etc.

Running Office 2000 and Office 2007

Hi.

I am running Windows 8.1. I have installed Microsoft Office 2000 Pro AND MS Office 2007. I do not like the PowerPoint on 2007 and want to use the 2000 version. I know it is on the computer because 2000 appears in the remove programs list, but that is the
only place I can find it. It does not seem to be anywhere in the Programs list, on Drive C or on the Start list. I know it works fine with Windows 8.1 and 10 as I use it on other machines with only Office 2000 installed. So how can I use PP2000. Should I /
Could I perhaps remove just the PowerPoint from the Office 2007 only and use PP2000?

Thanks

Andrew
