Upgrading Outlook 2000 to 2007 Without Upgrading Office

[Guest]

The library would like to upgrade to Outlook 2007 and I am in charge of
looking into it. I was wondering if there are any issues with installing
Outlook 2007 over Outlook 2000 and the rest of the 2000 Office Suite. Also,
are there any ways to deploy Outlook 2007 to many computers quickly? Thank
you in advance for your help!

The library would like to upgrade to Outlook 2007 and I am in charge
of looking into it. I was wondering if there are any issues with
installing Outlook 2007 over Outlook 2000 and the rest of the 2000
Office Suite.

Some of the integration between Outlook and the rest of Office won't work.
Other than than, it's doable.

Also, are there any ways to deploy Outlook 2007 to many
computers quickly?

How do you deploy software now? Some sites use applications like Radia to
push new software to the desktops. Some sites create disk images containing
the software and them reimage the desktops. You can also customize
installations with Profile files once you get Outlook installed:
