Where Can Office 2007 Issues / Bugs Be Reported?

I can't seem to find anywhere to do this. I don't get it - isn't that the
primary purpose of a BETA release - to test and report?!?!?!?

Thanks, Richard. I just found this smile/frown feedback program right before
you posted your reply. Have used it for one of each already. I have a real
issue with Outlook 2007 PRO being sluggish in loading images and
sending/receiving vs. 2003 PRO...I just hope that the Office BETA people read
these feedbacks!

It is a beta product - of course its performance will be slower than the
released Outlook 2003.

About Beta Software
a.. Registration is required for participation.
b.. 2007 Microsoft Office system Beta 2 is for evaluation and planning
purposes only.
c.. Beta software does not necessarily display the same high level of
stability of shipped Microsoft products.
d.. Beta testers may experience problems with 2007 Microsoft Office system
Beta 2 products that could potentially result in loss, corruption, or
destruction of existing data.
e.. This beta testing release is not appropriate for production use.
f.. It is strongly recommended that you back up your existing data before
you install and run this software.
g.. Beta code is offered "as is," and does not include technical support.
h.. Many organizations have policies prohibiting unauthorized software
installation on company-owned computers. Make sure you check with your IT
department before downloading and installing 2007 Microsoft Office system
Beta 2 on your computer at work.
See bullet number 3.

Also, you are not Beta testers, but Beta users. Beta testers have way more
resposibilities - and apparently a lot more common sense to read some of the
posters in the news groups (not including you in this - just a general
observation.)

Thanks, Milly...

Points are well taken. Now I feel like an idiot! ;-(

Just in case I have to, how much of a hassle am I looking at to uninstall
this BETA and reinstall my 2003 PRO? I wouldn' t think it would be a real
big deal, but you would know, I'm sure.

Thanks...

Andy
