Hi, I hope this is a simple question but I get the feeling it wont be.

My friend has an Enterprise edition of office 2007 and I have just bought
Office 2007 home and student edition. As he doesnt use outlook, he did not
install it when he installed the rest of office. I severely miss outlook but
could only afford the home and student addition.

Am I allowed to install outlook ONLY from his disk and use his key? since
each program will only be used on a single machine?

Any info or direction is much appreciated

No way! I would have thought that would be a pretty reasonable request
aswell. Any explanation as to why?

Thanks for the help

Because you are not allowed to "split" the license. If your friend chooses
not to install something, then he's not getting the full value of his money.
He can't even use "unused" programs on his own computers. No licesne of
office would allow you to do this.

Outlook Express isn't "that" much different (if you're using Win XP). If you
have Vista, Windows Mail.
