Outlook Live Upgrade

[Edward]

Has any subscriber to Outlook Live [2003] been successful in upgrading to
Outlook 2007?
When I purchased the subscription 2 years ago, I was told -- which is why I
bought/took the bait -- I would always have the latest version of Outlook
provided to me.
Now, these years later, there is no new version in sight, and very little
evidence of how the upgrade might be obtained.
I thought I had made a great investment; instead, I am handing over money to
Microsoft for no apparent reason.
Does anyone have any ideas?

Thank you for the input, Milly. I guess that I will give that a try.

I was told by a person who is involved with the outlook live program that an
something "exciting" is coming. The outlook live program is currently closed
to new subscribers and something is going to replace it in the spring.

Thanks very much for the input, Diane. But I don't know how excited I can
get, since it is already Spring.
Thanks, though. You're very kind to have helped me.

Spring just started 2 days ago and has 88 to go. Patience is a virtue.

Indeed! Patience is a virtue. Albeit one that I lack.

I received an email a few days ago that I would be getting Outlook 2007 in
the mail as part of my Outlook Live subscription. Too bad nobody at
Microsoft was knowledgeable about the program, but at least they are coming
through on their promise.
