Downgraded Oulook 2007/BCM 2007 back to Outlook 2003, major problems zipped <mikezemann[ at ]gmail.com> 5/26/2007 8:09:05 PM Love Office 2007 SBE, Outlook 07, and BCM 07. Only problem was it was sooooo slow. Love all the features though, exactly what I need. Installed full version, not trial. Downgraded back to Office 2003, Outlook 2003, and trying to reinstall BCM 2003. Here are the details. 1. Removed all Office 2007, Outlook 2007, BCM, SQL server. 2. Installed Office Pro 2003, full, did all updates via Microsoft Update 3. Installed BCM for Outlook 2003, downloaded from Microsoft. 3. Office has no problems. 4. Outlook couldn't start up in normal or safe mode. Got stuck on the migrating accounts window. 5. After many, many retries, not sure why, but Outlook started running BCM config files. 6. Outlook then fully opened. 7. BCM 2007 config files tried to load. Eventually it gave up. 8. Closed Outlook, can open it now no problem, but no BCM 2003 Q1. What else can I remove to insure BCM 2007 is gone from the system. Cab or install files somewhere? Q2. Any suggestions on what to do to reload 2003 safely? Thanks in advance!!!

I whole heartedly agree that this is the worst move I have ever made! Office 2007 is designed by marketing people it appears, not real users. I can not trust my business to the unreliable BCM that crashes at LEAST one out of ten times. I upgraded to be compatible with SBA 2007. Now I'm thinking that this was a dumb move. Ok... I have vented... Totally Frustrated! "zipped" wrote: [Quoted Text] > Love Office 2007 SBE, Outlook 07, and BCM 07. Only problem was it was > sooooo slow.
