Can SQL Toolkit and Database Connectivity executables live on the same machine?

I'm upgrading some older software from the SQL toolkit to the Database Connectivity toolkit. The documentation states that the two toolkits should not be installed at the same time, but does that also apply to executables built with the two toolkits?

I have no problem when running two executables on the same machine with SQL toolkit and DB Conn. I did nothing special, so everything should be fine.
Have a good luck.

I have built two applications, one in LabVIEW 5.1.1 with the old SQL
Toolkit, and the other in LabVIEW 6.0.2 with the new Database
Connectivity Toolset. Both were developed and built on the same
computer. Both applications have been installed on many different
computers at the same time with no conflicts.

LabVIEW 5.1.1 with the SQL Toolkit and LabVIEW 6.0.2 with the Database
Connectivity Toolset were each installed to a separate directory on
the development machine. Both SQL toolkits work with MDAC 2.5.

One main difference between building the LabVIEW 5.1.1 application and
the LabVIEW 6.0.2 application is that the LabVIEW 5.1.1 application
requires that the SQL Toolkit DLL's be included as support files in
the Build file.
