How do I upgrade from Office/Outlook 2000 to 2003 using Full version
 

I own MS Office 2003 All-In-One, full version. I would like to upgrade from
MS Ofiice 2000 Premium which is currently on my computer to MS Office 2003
All-in-One. Keeping in mind that the newer program is the Full install
version, what would be the easiest way to install, while still keeping my
current settings and configurations? is there a way to install/upgrade
without uninstalling all my current programs?

Thanks for your input, RichU

Just install it - it will offer to uninstall the previous version. The only
thing we do recommend is a new profile in Outlook as upgrading from 2000
tends to cause more problems than usual with the profile.

Thanks for your speedy reply!
When the install program uninstalls my 2000 Programs, will it leave all the
individually created office files in their respective directories? Will it
know to point to these same directories in the 2003 versions? Outlook is my
main program. Could the XP settings and migration tool save my Outlook 2000
profile or is it better to (sigh!) just start over from scratch? Does
Outlook 2003 use the same PSTs (I use two), rules, etc. that I used in
Outlook 2000?
Anything else i should know about changing from Outlook 2000 to Outlook 2003?


Thanks again,

most of the custom settings will remain - the outlook profile will migrate
to 2003 and as long as you don't get errors, you can use it. But if outlook
doesn't seem to be working right, then try a new profile.
