Upgrade from Home/Student to Business

[birdsell]

Version: 2008 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) Processor: Intel I need to update a machine that is running office 2008 HSE to the Business edition so that entourage will work with Exchange server.
If there is a POP account already setup in Entourage, when I make the upgrade, will that account and all of its contents remain? I just don't want to lose that data

You should uninstall Office first using the Remove Office tool, which
you can find in Applications/Microsoft Office 2008/Additional
Tools/Remove Office. Doing so will not affect your Entourage database,
which is stored in ~/Documents/Microsoft User Data. You can then install
the Business Edition, which should access your old database
automatically; if it doesn't, then you can use File>Import to import
your old database and its settings.

Thank you. That is most helpful.

If your Exchange server meets the requirements, you can upgrade from v12.2.3
to v13.0.3 for the Web Services Edition.
