I wouldn't mind a bit of advice on the best migration stragegy to move us
from Office 2000 to Office 2003, and from our internet mail server to
Exchange 2003. Currently we have Office 2000 Std deployed thru standalone
installs, using .pst files, but I'd like to deploy Office 2003 Std thru
Group Policy, and begin using exchange 2003. I'm not sure if Exchange
should be the first or the last thing to switchover. Is there some snazzy
wizard that can automatically import data from users'.PST files into the
Exchange store at the same time Office 2003 is deployed via Group Policy?
By the time we try to roll this out, the .PST files will all reside in a
network share, inside subfolders matching each username. We have about 30
users and computers, about 1/3 of them laptops.
Also to be noted is the fact that since many of our Windows XP installs are
upgrades from 98, I want to deploy a clean, sysprepped image of XP before
rolling out Office 2003. In this case, would it be better to migrate to
Exchange first? I'm trying to nail down the optimal order of tasks.
Thanks
Bryan
