MS Office Forum / Outlook / General MS Outlook Questions / May 2008Outlook 2007 from 2003
I have Office 2003 Pro (OEM)installed on a Win XP Pro Desktop PC. I have a full retail licence Office Ultimate 2007 that I want to install. I assume the way is to uninstall Office 2003 first and then a clean install of the new Ultimate 2007. If so, how do I keep my present Outlook address book, contacts etc as well as all Emails I have in the Inbox, Sent items and other Personal folders created. Once I have installed Ultimate 2007 and registered it, I plan to also install it on a new laptop (as per the licence). I assume this is the logical way to do it, but just for interest sake is there any reason why it can't be installed on the laptop first. Thanks in advance, Rod The upgrade will take care of the reconfiguration of Outlook with your previous settings automatically. Still, I would recommend recreating the mail profile after an upgrade. See http://www.howto-outlook.com/faq/newprofile.htm The installation order laptop/desktop doesn't matter.

When I uninstall Office 2003 completely, won't I lose all my present emails in Outlook in the boxes and contacts etc? > No, uninstall any Office 2003 components you will no longer need first > (usually you this means uninstalling Office 2003 completely).

Same as that you don't lose any Word documents ;-) SignatureRobert Sparnaaij [MVP-Outlook] Coauthor, Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.howto-outlook.com/ Outlook FAQ, HowTo, Downloads, Add-Ins and more http://www.msoutlook.info/ Real World Questions, Real World Answers ----- > Sorry if I am still confused.
