Hi,

Can any one tell me, is it possible to use a older version
of solver (solver with office 97) in office 2003? Because
I am having a problem with the new solver.

i.e. Can I place the older version of solver in another
location, and try to load it in office 2003, without
disturbing the new solver with 2003.

Please help.

Thanks

Hello. I don't have a solution to your question. Just out of curiosity,
what kind of problems are you having with xl 2003?
The reason I mention this is the following: Here in the newsgroups, it is
sometimes mentioned that "discontinuous" functions often do not work with
Solver. However, for Excel 2003, a Microsoft kb article actually
specifically mentions this. I do not know if there was a change with Solver
that might have prompted this kb article. A Solver macro template that I
use scans my model for these types of functions first before continuing.
