I tried to install both of them on my machine. I told setup-1.7 to install into a separate directory, however, all of the other registry stuff that keeps track of what is installed seems to be used as well. So, it installed some stuff, but not everything. The resulting install could not run programs because of missing dll's. Thanks. -Bill
