Microsoft Office InterConnect was released first in 2004, with Microsoft Office InterConnect 2004 and Microsoft Office InterConnect Lite, and another version was released in 2007, and was a part of the 2007 Microsoft Office System. Some updates were released for this program, such as Microsoft Office InterConnect 2004 SP2 or Microsoft Office InterConnect 2007 SP3.

• Microsoft Office InterConnect 2007 Japanese (classical program, without service packs and other languages than Japanese)
• Microsoft Office InterConnect 2007 with Service Pack 3 (Japanese and English included in the ISO, with classical features and SP3 preinstalled)

Microsoft Office InterConnect requires Outlook 2003 (only in Japanese for the 2004 version) / Outlook 2007 or 2010, and a POP3 email account.

On Windows XP, this software requires Oriental Languages installed.
