Office 2007 install tips

[Markb]

I want to install Office 2007 Standard. I now have Office 2000 installed.
Are there any special steps I should take? Any pitfalls I should be aware
of? Will all of my data files - .doc; .xls; .ppt - be accessible after I
install 2007? What about my Contacts, Calendar, Tasks from Outlook?
In other words, is installation going to be easy or a hassle? I will do the
installation anyway, but want to know what to be careful of.
TIA.

As always, before any software upgrade, ensure that you have a complete backup of your Office preferences. Having said that, the upgrade should be smooth except for having to configure Outlook to use the Outlook Address Book service.
