New and Old Office Icons on tool bar after upgrade

I have both the new and old office icons on my tool bar after my upgrade to the new Office package required after Catalina. The old versions of Excel, Word and Powerpoint, etc have a white X through them. Is it safe to put them in the trash or will i lose my old Excel spreadsheets, Word docs and Power points? Thank you!!

You can discard the old versions of the apps. Your data will be unaffected. You should of course keep backups of anything that matters to you.
