outlook 2007 and/or WDS? macrone 09-30-2007

hi there - i have just installed office 2007 and found WDS integrated
into outlook, which is great.

i had WDS 3.1 already installed and indexing all of my mail archives.

now i can't understand if outlook 2007 has its own index and all, and
the "desktop" version keeps updating its own "old" index anyway... or
not!

shall i uninstall WDS?
shall i tell WDS not to do anymore indexing, as outlook does it?

quite unclear to me, any help is welcome!

thanks,

Outlook 2007 and WDS 3 use the same index. In fact Outlook 2007 doesn't
really directly have an index, it uses WDS for this functionality.

So I believe your current settings are fine.

Thanks Dave - I'm sure Outlook 2007 uses the WDS engine, but I'm not
sure
about the unique index here.

When I ask Outlook and WDS for the status of the index, I usually get
a different
answer....???

It really does use the same index.

The indexing status is displayed in a slighly diferent way though. Can you
explain what you are seeing?
