Can MS Outlook 2000 be added to Office 2007?

I have purchased a new computer with Vista.
I had installed MS Office Student Edition 2007.
I've noticed that it does not have MS Outlook.
Can I install my Outlook 2000 program to my system,
although I have Office 2007 on there? Will I run into
problems or is there a specific way to do this?

Thanks so much for any information.

2007 should have outlook depending on what version

 

The Home and Student Office 2007 does not provide Outlook.
That's why I'm wondering if and how to install my MS Outlook 2000
to my already installed Student 2007.

 

I don't think they are compatable. Either purchase Outlook 2007 or use Outlook Express for your email.

 

Thanks for all of the reponses.

I just went out and bought Outlook 2007.
So now I just have to figure out how to merge all of my
e-mails, contacts, etc. from my computer with the Outlook Express (running on Windows 98) and merge them onto my new computer with Outlook 2007 (running on Vista). Anyone?

I've googled this and there's so many opinions.

 

Oh, good to hear this is a good solution!
I'm bummed that they sold me the Office Student Edition.
Why not the entire package with Outlook. (just venting)

Halo, I'm going to try and work on all of this.
I'll let you know how things go

Thanks so much.

 

Okay, what I'm stuck on it...

I followed the instructions in the first link - saving all of my files from OE6.
I saved them onto a memory stick, being that Outlook 7 is on my new computer.

I read the "Importing" instructions in the second link,
however I don't see any clear options for importing these
files back in from my memory stick (or file).

Is there a "how to" for this.

I'm reading that I may have to import everything into "Windows Mail" on my new computer with 0utlook 2007,
then import the info from Windows Mail. Does that sound correct? or suggested?

This might help you, have to save the OE file to your PC it looks like.

I looked into this awhile back, after I bought my notebook PC with Vista and was wondering about copying email messages over from my Win XP desktop PC, and, as I recall, you will have to do just as you said above.

 

"Copy the entire Outlook Express folder to removable media, such as a floppy disk, DVD, or portable memory device, and then copy it to the computer where Outlook is installed."
