Use Word 2007 to edit Outlook 2003?
in [Outlook]

From: tfall on 10 Apr 2010 17:10 I have Word 2007 from the teacher and student edition, so it did not come with Outlook 2007. I use Outlook 2003 from an earlier package. I would like to use Word as my email editor, but when I go to Outlook's Tools/Options/Mail Format tab the boxes say Word 2003 and are grayed out; there is no option for Word 2007, nor a way to click on Word 2003. Is there a way to use Word as my email editor? Thanks, tfall

Integration features only work when the versions are matched. > Is there a way to use Word as my email editor? Although you can separately purchase Outlook 2007, the standalone version will be missing integration features with components that were in the Office 2007 product. I'm not sure which integration features are lost with the standlone version install. See if you can return the H&S edition of Office 2007 to get another edition that DOES include Outlook 2007. Or revert to Office 2003 since all of its editions included Outlook 2003 (I got my Office 2003 for just $40 on eBay but after searching for many months and skipping the iffy sellers to ensure that I got a legitimate copy).
