Outlook 2007 and Office 2010 (Home & Student)

[Rebel]

I'm contemplating purchasing Office 2010 - Home and Student Edition (which doesn't include Outlook of course). I'm currently using Outlook 2007 (which uses Word 2007 as its editor), and I want to keep Outlook after I install this version of Office 2010.

Has anyone had experience with the combination of Office 2010 Home & Student and Outlook 2007? Will Outlook 2007 use Word 2010 as its editor? If not, what sort of functionality will be lost or what types of problems may I expect? I've searched for information regarding this combination but I've not been able to come up with anything.

Outlook 2007 doesn't really use Word 2007 as e-mail editor; it has its own editor that is based on the Word editor. So it should be possible to keep Outlook 2007 with the same functionality as before.

Well that sounds encouraging. Thanks Hans.
