Installing Office in Windows 7

[JCO]

Currently Running Windows 7 Ultimate & Office 2007.
I have Office 2010 and want to install it. Should I un-install Office 2007
first? I don't need both. I don't know if the software will detect an
earlier version and ask if I want to remove it before installing the 2010
version.

Other issue: I assume I should save the .pst file and link the Outlook 2010
to this file?
Thanks

2010 installer will detect 2007. It will ask if you want it to uninstall or
run both side-by-side.

If you install as above, it should detect and automatically set set to use
it. Backup first is the rule anytime you do an upgrade or major change.
