2 separate things, you don't have to take into account what each other is
doing.

I have a 1 year old daughter.
In 2004 I contributed $2000 to a new coverdell account for her (2004
tax year contribution)
In 2005, my father, (Daughters grandfather) opened a 529 plan in her
name and put in $10,000.

For 2005, can I contribute to the Coverdell account assuming my
incoming fits within the specs for the coverdell or is it limited by
the contribution to the 529 plan.

Thanks in advance.
