Business Contact Manager

[Janis]

I have been trying out this program and find that it is more complex than I
need for our small start up business. My partner thinks a little daily
calender is all we need but I want more than that. My question is...can I
buy outlook 2007 and transfer all the contacts and tasks over from the trial
of Business Contact Manager?

I'm confused. Usually, BCM is an add-in to Outlook. Are you referrng to
something else called BCM and not Outlook with Business Contact Manager?

if the contacts are in outlook's contacts it will be simple to stop using
BCM. If there are in BCM you need to copy them to outlook's contacts before
removing BCM.

In order to try Business Contact Manager I downloaded Office Pro even though
I had the basic program in my computer. When my partner tried to download
the same program to his laptop it failed to install properly. He then
uninstalled it and it took out all of his programs even though they had been
purchased prior to the attempted download. Now I am trying to figure out how
to remove Office Pro so that I can purchase Outlook 2007, withou losing my
Office products.

If the basic program you had previously included outlook, you don't need to
purchase it again.

Only one version of Outlook can be installed within one Windows partition.
Office Basic includes Word, Excel, and Outlook only. If you install Office
Pro while Office Basic is already installed and the latter is a different
version of the former, then you should be asked if you want two versions of
Word and Excel installed or if you want to upgrade, but Outlook won't install
until you remove the previous version or specify an upgrade. To revert to
what you had before, you'll neeed to uninstall Office Pro, then reinstall
Outlook from the Office Basic suite or the entire Office Basic suite,
depending on how you installed the Office Pro suite.
