My statement was "I would have expected a more network
friendly version from Microsoft". Using TS is NOT what I
would call network friendly. I wish they had a MORE
network friendly version. But if you, as a MS
representative, want to take it as an arguementative
statement and not a legitimate customer observation (I am
sure many others would like to see a TRUE network version
too), then so be it.

I am not a Microsoft representative. The MVP is a designation I earned for
past contributions to news groups, both here and in Outlook groups.

As for a network friendly version of Office, it is a local program, not
suited for networking. You can perform an administrative installation and
install locally from that point or you can use Terminal Services.

Please explain what you mean by a "network friendly version" then - do you
mean where the application is installed on the network and people can open
applications without having the program installed locally? That would be
terminal services. If you mean something else, please explain. I am not
being argumentative, just curious as to what you mean by your statement.

For future reference (and perhaps this one currently) you can contact
Microsoft about product features you would like to see in future versions -
(e-mail address removed) and put Office in the subject line. Microsoft does
read these mails and has a database they keep to track the most often
requested features. That is how Calendar Coloring finally rose to the top
for Outlook.
