Microsoft office professional 2007 Archives

The File connector uses the Microsoft Messaging API (MAPI) client libraries to access mail archive content. You therefore need to install this Microsoft component on the Coveo server when you want to index mail archive content.

You must install the MAPI component using the Microsoft Office installer on the Coveo server. You can install only the MAPI component using the installation options.

Note: Do not use the Microsoft standalone installation package for MAPI and CDO. This package does not install all the components that the File connector needs.

You can use the installer for various versions of Microsoft Office:

Installing the MAPI components with Microsoft Office 2010

1. Using an administrator account, connect the Coveo Master server on which a File connector needs to access mail archive content.

   Note: By default, the Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010 installer does not offer options to select specific components to install. You can however use the Office Customization Tool that is part of the setup program to specify components to install.

2. Launch the Microsoft Office 2010 installer using the /admin option to start the Office Customization Tool:

   1. Open a Command Prompt window.

   2. Type setup.exe /admin at the command line from the root of the network installation point that contains the Office 2010 source files.

5. Start the Microsoft office installer using the setup command-line option /adminfile to specify the fully-qualified path of the location of the .msp file:

   • In a Command Prompt window, type a command in the form:

     setup.exe /adminfile [path]\[customization_file]

Yesterday Visio 2007 was made available to business customers along with the rest of the 2007 Office System.  Retail availability for Visio 2007 will be January 30, 2007.

What’s so great about Visio 2007? 

Our primary investment focuses on visualizing business information.  We’ve made it significantly easier to bring your business data into Visio and visualize it in a diagram.  Data Link is a new feature that imports data from external sources and associates that data with individual shapes in the drawing.  Data Graphics is a new feature that surfaces your data in graphical ways.  Combined with the ability to refresh from the data source, these features turn your Visio diagram into a living document.

While Data Link helps you add data to your existing diagram, Visio 2007 introduces a new drawing type called PivotDiagrams.  Similar in concept to Excel PivotTables, PivotDiagrams dynamically present tabular data in a hierarchical form.  By pivoting on different columns in the data, the diagram changes to aggregate information based on the breakdown specified.   PivotDiagrams are a great way to explore large data sets and present meaningful information visually.

Visio 2007 also makes it easy to communicate with your audience.  A new Themes feature provides one click formatting to drawings, giving them a professional appearance.  Publish as PDF or XPS lets you distribute diagrams in a fixed format.  Also Outlook 2007 has the Visio Viewer built right in.  Sharing Visio drawings has never been easier.
