Two different LabVIEW version on the same PC

How is the best way to have two different LabVIEW version on tha same PC
(for example 6.0.2 and 5.1).

Thanks

LabView behaves well with multiple versions installed on one machine. Just install the software using the default paths:
LabView 5.1 will end up in C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW
LabView 6.0.2 will end up in C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 6
The Start menu will show the different versions. You can create desktop icons for the different versions also.

Note: By default, when you double-click a VI, it will be opened with the last version of LabVIEW you had open...

If you open the VI from LabView (not Windows Explorer), it will (attempt to) open it with the version you are currently using.
