I haven't downloaded OpenOffice but am considering it.

Can I install the whole program and operate it whilst my MS Office
2003 and other MS products remain installed on the same PC?

In addition to Dan's comments about file associations, please be aware that OpenOffice can read and write all but the most complex MS office documents but that the converse is not true. MS Office is deficient in that it cannot handle the International Standards Organisation's (ISO) Open Document Format (ODF) which is what OO uses.
