Can I upgrade only part of the Office Suite?

[Patti Mikkelsen]

I am currently running Office 2000 Professional version. I would like to
upgrade but the Prof. version is pretty expensive. I thought I might upgrade
to the Home & Student 2007 version. However, this package does not include
Access and Outlook. Will these two components (from 2000 suite) still work
if I upgrade the rest?

Yes, but without any integration....

Yes they will, but you wont neccessarily have full intergration between the
version components, specifically Outlook.
If you are in education you may qualify under other incentives for pro at a
reduced price, though you need to check that your PC meets the requirements

Thanks Gordon & DL

I'm on the fence about Outlook, but would like to keep Access. If I do buy
the Home & Student upgrade, do I have to do anything special when I install,
so as not to disturb the Access portion of the old suite?

An MS version upgrade will not touch installed components that are not
included in the upgrade version

If you have a ".edu" email address you qualify for Office Ultimate for
$59.95 and you can help save lives in Africa too.
