Office 2003 and windows 7

[europeanonion]

How can I get the Office assistant to work at this sort of release level? I
get a message about Microsoft Agent 2.0 when I try and start the feature.

Are you using Outlook 2003 or Outlook 2002? I didn't think Agent was
included in Office 2003. Anyway, it wont work on Win7. Turn off using the
assistant in the Help settings. It was possible to install the Agent files
in Vista - I don't know if it will work in win7 - I'd disable the assistant
first.

Also see http://www.outlook-tips.net/howto/vista.htm for more information on
older versions of outlook and vista/win7 compatibility.

Diane is correct. Agent does not work with Windows 7

So the agent installation won't work at all? It did with vista.
