Can't find programs after installing Office 2007
vinflo 21.07.2006 22:03:01
I installed Office Professional Plus 2007 and now can't find any of the
Office programs in "Start" menu or "My Programs". Office Professional Plus
2007 Beta is populated in my Add/Remove Programs and if I open an existing
Word or Excel file it is upgraded to Office 2003 and opens with the new Beta
2007 format. Shouldn't I be able to launch each program individually?

All of my Office 2000 programs are gone and I need to check my e-mail but
can't find Outlook anywhere. I can create new Word or Excel files by opening
an existing document and clicking on create new or blank document then saving
it by the new name but of course I should be able to launch each program
without going through an existing file.

I ran Office Diagnostics through the resources function in Word and all
categories came back "no problems" found.

Did you install it to a seperate directory or did you allow it just to
update your current version? If you did not direct the installation to a new
directory, you most likely overwrote your Office 2000 application files. In
regareds to Outlook, AFAIK you can not have 2 versions of Outlook so you
will have to use Outlook 2007 if you installed it.
