Multiple SQL Version

Dear all,
Can I install several version of MSDE in my PC ?
Thanks.
You should be able to install multiple instance of MSDE on the same machine.
When you install a new MSDE instance just make sure that it has a different
instance name than already existing ones, else you will encounter an
instance clash error. All common files will be replaced if it detects that
it the one you are installing has a newer version, else it will be left
alone.
