Outlook 2007 w/BCM and Act! 2006

[ekwang]

Hello,

I have both Act! 2006 and Office 2007 installed on my work laptop. Can I
install and safely use Outlook 2007 w/BCM and Act! 2006 together at the same
time? I know that in the past with Act! and Outlook 2003 w/BCM there were
known conflicts when trying to use both applications together, so was
wondering if it is still the same case. Thanks.

I'm not aware of any conflicts and its not immediately obvious why
they should conflict. However,

If you install Act!'s Outlook add-in, it may conflict with BCM's add-
in--simply because Outlook loads them into the same process, and I've
come across add-ins that step on each other in the past. You can
probably tell ACT! not to install its Outlook add-in to avoid possible
problems.

Both use Sql Server, but difference instances. I'd install the most
recent of the two first, simply because recent code is more likely to
have resolve earlier problems, if any.
