I recently moved from AutoCAD 2002 to 2004, and then discovered that my
2002 version of CAD Overlay will not run any longer under 2004.

Therefore, is it possible to install 2002 AFTER I've installed 2004, so
that I can use my CAD Overlay program? Or are there potential conflict
issues?

I could create another partition on my hard drive (like a D:), and
install 2002 and CAD Overlay there, if that would help the situation.

TIA for your replies.

I did it and have no problems except the help file for '02 seems to bugger
up now and then. Actually, I am running '02, '04(LDD) and '05 on the same
machine. I also run them at the same time with no problem. I am using
xpPro on a dell note book... don't know if that makes a difference or not.

Take care,
TimB
