I have Microsoft Office XP Professional with Front Page on my computer. I am
unable to update this. Updating requires the original disk which I do not
have. Is there some way to update without the original disks.
I have also installed MS Office Professional which I purchased later and
have disks for. If I cannot update the the Office Professional with Front
Page, I would like to migrate to the MS Office Professional which I have
installed on the computer. How do I do this without losing any Outlook emails
and address book or other settings.What are the files that I need to backup
to save email and address information - and any other information that I need
to make a seamless transition from XP Professional with Front Page to XP
Professional.
Your outlook data is contained within the *.pst file, by default
outlook.pst. Its a hidden file.
With outlook closed simply copy it.
Uninstall all Office completely, reboot, then install the version you have
the disks for
