My boss just purchased Office 2007 Small Business Upgrade version from a retail store.

We already had Office 2003. And I had downloaded a free trial to Office 2007 small business about 2 weeks ago.

The instructions that came with the newly purchased software are just a user guide, but no install instructions.

I have read on microsoft's website that they do not recommend running multiple versions, nor do I want to.

I don't seem to find install instructions anywhere. If I uninstall the 2003 full version and 2007 trial versions before installing the full 2007 software will my documents be saved. Is there a better way?

Thanks, Cheryl

Your documents should be fine. You might notice some of your old .doc files made with Word 2003 tend to look a little differently in Word 2007, but it generally doesn't take much to fix it.
