I would advise the best way to go would be to have two separate computers, if you must use two different versions of Word. Better yet, why not just go back to Word 2000 for both programs, and then you could probably run both programs on the same machine. I used to run three programs on the same machine, but they all used the same version of Word (that was the key). Also, I was recently running Word 2003 with EditScript and it kept crashing, so I went back to Word 2000. I know that Word 2002 works fine with EditScript, too, but I had a bad experience with 2003. I also use InstantText with EditScript, and it can be tricky in that you must make sure that the InstantText window is linked to the EditScript Word window BEFORE you download a job. Otherwise, when you hit the backspace button, InstantText will begin deleting any and all text in the window and totally erase your work. Yep, a nice little bug, for sure. Hope this helps. Good luck....
