I'm looking to install Exchange 2000 Server in an Office 97/Office 2000 environment. What compatibility issues will I run into, mainly with Office 97 (corporate/workgroup)? Are there any issues with sharing contacts, calendars or any of the other features Exchange Server offers?

There aren't any overall compatibiliy issues that I'm aware of with Outlook 97 and Exchange 2k. You can still access calendars, contacts etc.. However, Outlook 97 is no longer supported by Microsoft so securtity patches etc. are no longer available.You get the right to use Outlook 2000 with each Exchange 2000 CAL you purchase. I suggest you think about upgrading your clients to OL 2k, if for no other reason than support.
