A diary based on my latest attempts to get a job; this time in Munich. I'm an engineering graduate (and chartered engineer) with more than 10 years' experience in IT. Over five of these years have been spent in team leading and project management roles both in the UK and abroad.

2007

So, I'm using OneNote 2007 and I want to use its task feature as an input into my Outlook. But that doesn't work as my Outlook version is too old.

I find that Outlook 2007 isn't purchasable yet. Then I find that Microsoft allows you to download it before it becomes commercially available.

Great. That's what I do.

Then I find that although most of Office 2007 is installed Outlook stays the same.

Not great.

I eventually check out Microsoft's discussion forums.

In one of them it reveals that you need to first un-install Outlook.

They could have mentioned that in the download instructions.

Anyway, tomorrow I must re-start job hunting. If I find anything suitable in Munich then I'll send an email from my shiny new Outlook 2007.
