Installing MS Office Small Business when I already have Outlook, W
My computer came with a trial version of Office Home & Student which I did
not activate. Instead I bought a version that had Outlook, Word & Excel + a trial of Office Professional. I then decided to buy Office Small business. Can I install all of Small Business over what I have, should I uninstall everything & install Small Business? Can I just install the parts of Small business that I want - Publisher & Power Point? If I remove the current Outlook & reinstall all of Small business will I have to re-import all my contacts & calendar or is it saved somewhere? What is the correct way to do this?

Installing MS Office Small Business when I already have Outloo
That's what I thought you would say!!! So I won't have to re-import my
address book after I do that?

Installing MS Office Small Business when I already have Outloo
I'm honestly not sure but I would *strongly* recommend you back it up as
well as archive any emails you want to keep. They should be fine but just in case Mucrphy's Law kicks in... -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] Tech Editor for "Microsoft Publisher 2007 For Dummies" "jbstrmd" wrote in message ...

Installing MS Office Small Business when I already have Outloo
Thanks, JoAnn.
I uninstalled the trial of Home & Student, the Activation assistant, & the Office professional. Then I installed the new Office 2007 Small Business. All my contacts & calendar reappeared as well as all my settings. However, the Business Contact Manager would not install (don't know if I need it anyway), and every time I open Outlook it says Outlook wasn't closed properly the last time & Microsoft is checking the files. It then checks files for about 5 minutes & I can go about my business. But the next time I open Outlook it happens again. I can use Outlook while it is checking, but it shouldn't be doing that.

Since that's a different problem, try starting a new thread with an
applicable subject line. Hopefully someone will be able to help you.

Installing MS Office Small Business when I already have Outloo
Thanks for all your help. What I ended up doing was try a system restore.
Which didn't complete, but for some reason now Outlook is opening normally!!! COMPUTERS!!! BTW, I also did a backup before I started fooling with thisG Judy "JoAnn Paules" wrote: Since that's a different problem, try starting a new thread with an applicable subject line.
