  Office 2007

Microsoft Office 2007 is ready for our Faculty and Staff to install on their office computers.  Upgrading is completely voluntary.

You can install Office 2007 package from our network folder:
R:\Software\swdist\Office_2007\Install Microsoft Office Enterprise 2007.EXE

If you do not wish to upgrade at this time, you will need the Microsoft Office 2007 Compatibility Pack to work with colleagues and coworkers:

Before installing the Compatibility Pack, you will need to ensure that your Microsoft Office Suite is up-to-date.  Visit the Microsoft Office Update page to search for and install any necessary upgrades.

Important information for Home Computers
If you have a University-owned computer at home, you can have Office updated at no cost.  Simply make an appointment with the Helpdesk and bring it in for upgrading.

Due to licensing restrictions, we cannot upgrade personally owned home computers.  However, you can purchase Office 2007 from the ITCS Computer Showcase for approximately $50.

  Mac Office 2004 Compatibility

Microsoft has announced the beta release of a  File Format Converter, which will allow Mac users to open XML-based Office 2007 documents.
