How do I upgrade safely to SP1 and SP2 if I have Office
2000 also installed? It seems that the upgrade would
clobber all the Office 2000 programs, but upgrade properly
the Powerpoint 2002 program? Can this be done safely?

Thanks
 
Your question is a bit confusing because SP1 and SP2 are service packs that
are applied to software that is already in place.

So, I'm going to answer what you put in the subject line instead. If you
are in possession of the *upgrade* version of standalone PowerPoint 2002, it
will replace PowerPoint 2000 and leave the other Office 2000 programs alone.
If, on the other hand, you have the *upgrade* for the full Office XP Suite,
then you want to run a "Custom" install and only upgrade PowerPoint. Does
that help?
