When the install program prompts you for the installation directory, *change
* *C:\Program Files\Win-Test* to* C:\Program Files\WT4* or similar.  Then
register WT4.  Your old copy of WT3 will continue to work.  WT3 stores the
registration key in C*:\Program Files\Win-Test\wt.ini*.  WT4 stores a
completely different registration key in *C:\Documents and Settings\All
Users\Application Data\Win-Test\cfg\wt.ini *(on Windows XP).

But, *why* do you need both WT3 and WT4 on the same computer?  WT4 was
released over 16 months ago, and it is very reliable at this point.  WT4
will convert WT3 files (.WTB) to WT4 format automatically. You also have the
problem of keeping two copies of MASTER.DTA and CTY_WT_MOD.DAT up to date if
you want to continuously switch back and forth between WT3 and WT4.
