Outlook 2002

[Calethia W Hill]

On my old laptop I have loaded Office XP. I recently purchased a new laptop
and will be using both. I have Corel Suite on the new one but I want to use
Outlook as my email service. Can I load only Outlook from my Office disk or
will I have to load the entire office to use Outlook? Please help.

That all depends on what type of license you have for Outlook. If you have
an Outlook (or Office) OEM license, you cannot legally install any Office
product on any machine other than the original - even if you no longer own
the original machince an OEM license is valid only on the original machine.

If you have a retail license, you are allowed to install any Office app on
one desktop and one laptop, provided the laptop is for use by the same
person using the desktop. If you have the Student and Teacher license, you
can install any Office app on up to three PCs.

Given the legal constraints are met, you can install only Outlook from the
Office CD if that's all you want. You do not have to install the entire
Office Suite.
