Default Outlook 2007 with Business Contacts won't load

Says I need to install outlook 2007 beta first, but where can I find
it? I thought it was wrapped up in one program. When I go to beta
downloads, it still only gives me the 2007 Outlook with Business
Contacts as an option to download.

Outlook 2007 is part of Office 2007. You need to install at least the Outlook bits from Office first.

Hi Sue,

I'm having the same problem. I wanted to download Outlook 2007 so I could
write documentation for my users on how to setup Outlook 2007. So are you
saying I needed to download the entire Office 2007 Beta and not just the
Outlook 2007 Beta? If so, why did they let me download just Outlook?


Michael

Exactly.

Because Microsoft will not package the individual standalone versions of the Office products until manufacturing begins for the retail release in early 2007.

Yeah, but why would they let me download *only* Outlook if they knew it
wouldn't work unless I downloaded Office?

That's a shame. It wants me to pay again to download it.

They didn't allow any such thing. The product you downloaded is misnamed, IMO. It is nothing more than an Outlook add-in. It is not Outlook.
