I am upgrading my Office Professional 2003 to Office Enterprise 2007
by uninstalling the old first. I have read primarily 2 different ways
to handle bring forward my email, contacts and calendar:
1) back-up the pst file to an external drive
2) export pst files

Which is the best way to use the new version of Outlook to utilize all
it's features?

Thanks!

Uninstall the old, reinstall the new. Having said that a backup is allways
wise (Not Export, simply copy with OL closed)
The reinstall should connect to your origonal data, if for some reson it
doesnt its a simple process to reconnect (Within OL, File>Open>Data File)
 
Answer has been posted here countless times. Exporting Outlook data is never
correct. Copy your Outlook data file, open in in the new installation. If
you need more details, read the posts here.
