from 2003 to 2007

[rogueclassicist]

I'm anxiously awaiting 2007's arrival (missed the beta ... doh!) and am
wondering about converting pages from 2003 to 2007 when the time comes.
If I set up a page now in 2003 that has tasks linked to outlook, when I
convert them to 2007 will they 'become' two way connections? Or will I
have to remake the link? Similarly, if I have a 2003 page and have not
yet made a link to outlook, when i convert to 2007, will I be able to
(after conversion) make links to outlook tasks from that page?

The answer to all your questions should be Yes.
Before you upgrade, make a backup copy of your notebook though, just to
be safe!
A trial version should be available December 1 (ok, it's prob. going to
be Dec. 3 by the time you have a realistic chance of getting it from the
servers I expect a massive onslaught on the servers on dec 1.)

Aloha (e-mail address removed),

Don't be, they convert very well.

If I set up a page now in 2003 that has tasks linked to
outlook, when I convert them to 2007 will they 'become' two way
connections? Or will I have to remake the link?

No, you'll have to remake the link. There's no way for 2007 to recognize
and automatically create the two-way links.

Similarly, if I have a 2003 page and have not yet made a link to outlook, when i convert to
2007, will I be able to (after conversion) make links to outlook tasks
from that page?

Yes, no problem.
