I searched but could not find an answer to this:
I have Office Pro 2003 installed and after much trial finally got Outlook 2003 to work with all the areas I use ...
I purchased Office Pro 2007 recently. How can I install O-2007 and migrate my 2003 Outlook information, setups, links, email info, etc ...
Is there a step by step article that deals specifically installing from 2003 to 2007?
During the installation of 2007, is there an upgrade option to migrate my settings, etc?
Click to expand...
I am not concerned with any other part except Outlook.
Thanks for your help

Installing Outlook 2007 over the top of 2003 _should_ detect the prior
version and migrate everything, but it also won't hurt to uninstall the
prior version and install the new version. Your mail profile should show up
in Outlook 2007 without any loss. It's always a good idea to back your data
up prior to an upgrade, however.
 
As with any PC process its advised to backup data, in the case of Outlook
the *.pst files, simply search to include hidden, then copy to eg Documents
folder (with Outlook closed)

Running the 2007 installation disk will give you the option to Upgrade, on
the last occassion I did this it proceeded flawlessly
