Help with MS Office 2007

[greybell]

Okay, I'm about to install ... but I can't have two instances of Outlook. I want to discard the new version and keep the new one. It says I can do this, but I'm not sure how.

Anybody used MS Office 12 yet?

Well, firstly, you will need to uninstall the existing version of outlook.

Click Start > Click Run > Then type "Control Panel" exactly like that, without the quotes..then, click Enter, or OK.

You will then be displayed with a box like this..



Click, add/remove programs (the one highlighted), find the existing Outlook application, and click remove.

Then just install the new version

Ahh, I have just realised - I am presuming you are using XP, post back if your not..

he says he wants to discard the new version and keep the new version..... wtf?
anyway ive used office 12 (2007). it is nothing special at all. just a ram hogger. the tabs are cool though but can take ages to find something.

I think he meant discard the old version, and use the new one.

Uninstall the old and install the new.

 

[dude_se]

cant he just install 2007 which will upgrade his old version?

 

[joxley1990]

If he has the seperate installation packages, then yeah, but he might not have..

well when i installed, i just let it upgrade over my 2003 edition and it upgraded outlook and everything so i just had 1 copy

you can have both versions. just change the installation path and when it asks, say you want to keep the existing version. i have office 200 and 2003 running together fine (though i mainly use openoffice)
