Hello! I am currently using 2004 and am wanting to upgrade to 2008. If I purchase/upload the programs, will all my current data transfer programs? (ex: entourage, word, etc)

Thanks for your help!

Yes, you can have both applications installed at the same time, and I
recommend that you do not delete Office 2004 during the install process. If
for some reason you have trouble importing your Entourage 2004 Identity into
Entourage 2008, you will need to open the Identity and manually move over
your data.

Installing does not touch your files in the Documents folder.

Entourage will upgrade your database. You will have an Office 2004
Identities folder and an office 2008 Identities in your Microsoft User Data
folder. I suggest you upgrade to 12.1.1 before opening your importing your
old Identity.

Follow these steps for installing. The restarts are IMPORTANT.
