Navision 4 SP2 and Navision 4 SP3 on the same PC

Hi
I want to install a SP3 client to a PC that already has a SP2 client.
It seems that it can't be done. I installed it in a different folder but the problem remains. Is there anyone that already has done it to tell me how it can be done?

    what problem is it that remains?

    You can simply copy the folder and put a shortcut on desktop to access the sp2 exe.

    Sorry I did not installed it in a different folder, I meant I tried to install it in a different folder. Even if I have SP2 installed first or SP3 I get the same message when I try to install the other. The message is:
    "Another version of this product is already installed. Installation of this version cannot continue. To configure or remove the existing version of this product, use Add/Remove programs on the Control Panel".

    Those are greek versions.

    If you mean from the cd directly without an installation, no I haven't tried it. Isn't there any reason to install it?

    not really unless you are using certain components like commerce portal and commerce getaway that require the registration of dll files, but even those you can register manually.

    I have from version 2.0 till 5.0 all in navision folder, so that I can work on different customer databases with different versions.
    I just have one version installed. It is usually the latest version. 5.0 right now.
