Replacing Office XP Home with Professional

[Margaret]

I have a chance to buy the Professional version of Office
XP very cheaply for my home computer. If I install
Professional, what will happen to my current files in the
Home/Small Business version and my folders/address book
in Outlook Express?

Thanks,
Margaret

Your data files won't be touched, but you should be backing these up
regularly anyway.
