Outlook 2003 vs Office 2007

[Vicki]

I have Outlook 2003 installed on my laptop, along with the student/home
version of Office 2007. Is there a way to get my Outlook's Mail Format to
accept the 2007? I don't have the editing capabilities I used to, and my
signatures and some formatting seem to be lost.

(I used to have the full trial version of Outlook 2007 installed and have
since uninstalled and decided to just have the student version, along w/ my
previous 2003 Outlook. Was this a mistake?)

While Outlook 2003 will function nicely along side with Office 2007, you
lose Office integration. In this case, you lose the ability to use Word as
Outlook's email editor. To get that back, you either need to revert to
Office 2003 or update Outlook to 2007.

Thank you! That's what I was afraid of.
