Which did you install first? Did you try running HelpResourcesDiagnose in
Excel 2007?

Ask here, get an answer here. Never post your real mail address in a
newsgroup unless you like spam and viruses or think you can handle them.

Save the file to your computer, then right-click it and select "Open with".
Choose the desired version of Excel and make sure "Always use the selected
program to open this kind of file" is ticked. Any future attachments with
the same file extension should now open with the correct version of Excel.

Note: this procedure is for Windows Vista. The same should apply with XP
but the wording may be slightly different. Also, I can't remember if XP had
"Open With" on the right-click menu by default. You may have to hold down a
Shift key while right-clicking.

Of course, another option would be to simply uninstall Office 2003. If you
do this you may need to reinstall Office 2007 afterwards.
