Does anybody know how to get around the problem with Groupwise and Outlook
If Outlook is already install'd Groupwise will not install and have errors..

One option is to uninstall Microsoft Outlook, Word, Excel , Powerpoint , then install Groupwise first
then reinstall Microsoft suite.....

Does anyone know any way around this? To leave Microsoft on and install Groupwise ???

Well, I hate the POS they call Groupwise more than anything.... but I never liked Outlook much either. I've always used Outlook Express, which happens to not have any trouble with Groupwise being installed. Just remove Outlook but install Word, Excel, PP.

We use Groupwise at work, and can't have Outlook installed. I'm surprised that duragezic can get it to work with Outlook Express! I'd try uninstalling just Outlook, leaving the rest as is...

You can have them installed together, just not under the
same USER PROFILE on the same machine.

It works fine with Outlook *Express*, at least here at work. It's still a big piece of crap though.

Correct. Outlook (not Outlook Express) and Novell Groupwise do not play well together.
Save yourself trouble and don't try to install the two together under the same user. It will cause nothin' but grief.
