I downloaded the Office 2007 Small Business Edition trial from the UK
website. Word, Excel etc installed OK but Outlook 2007 did not seem to be
included. Running the second download gives an error that the Outlook 2007
Business Contact manager can't be installed without Outlook 2007 being
installed first, and that the first "CD" should be reinserted. But trying to
repair the installation by rerunning the first download file shows that
Outlook 2007 was not available. Is there a fix or do I have to download a
different trial?

As has been repeated here hundreds of times already, you must uninstall any prior version of Outlook to install the 2007 Outlook trial.

Does that go as well for the 2007 Outlook Launch2007 version, which starts
out as a "trial" and ends up as perpetually licensed?

And, if so, how does one keep from permanently losing all prior Outlook
emails (in and out), contacts, address book entries, settings, etc.?

Thanks for any clarifications.
