Not at all, especially if you did not convert your original PST to a Unicode
PST when you installed Office 2007. If you did convert it and cannot get
Outlook 2007 reinstalled, you may be correct..

Exporting is not backing up. Copying the PST while Outlook is closed is
backing up.

You could do it by brute force and remove all references to Office 2007 from
the registry and then delete the Office folder tree. You'll leave some DLLs
behind, but I think it's likely they'll be overwritten when you reinstall
the older version.
