Hello David,
I suppose the "short and simple" answer is if the software is doing what you
want and you are happy with the current functionality and have no
compatibility issues then it probably does not make sense to upgrade at this
time. Of course I think there are a lot of reasons to look at Office 2007,
but then I am probably biased :-)

Hi All



Two questions re Outlook that I need advice on please



1.. I am using Outlook Office XP The office has purchased Office 2003 and
wants us all to upgrade. I have no problems with Word and Excel but am
reluctant to change Outlook XP as it works OK for me. It is has all
updates.


2.. I am not involved in inter office uses other than email. My main use
of Outlook is for Contacts (not shared) Appointments (not shared) and
syncing these to my Palm


3.. How do I set the format for my Contacts Mobile Numbers. Outlook
treats them as landlines ie (04) 1819-7035 Even when I correct this
manually to 0418 197035 it reverts.


4.. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
