Client Users:</i></b><i> </i>The server upgrades will take place one to two
days prior to the conversion, during which time users may experience
intermittent slowness. Thin Client servers will be taken offline at 5pm

Technology Services will be sent a web link that will automatically download
and install both upgrades to the Oracle calendar connector for Outlook as well
as Office 2007. These users will be able to upgrade at a time that is
convenient for them. An email containing the web link will be sent on
October 27<sup>th</sup>. The link will also be posted at <a

Office ’07, staff will be provided a link to the Office 2003
“compatibility pack” which will allow them to open and edit Office
2007 documents sent to them by others.<o:p></o:p></p>
