Installing Exchange System Manager for Exchange 2003 on Windows 7

This morning my colleague decided that he wanted to upgrade his XP machine to Windows 7. Other than myself, no one else on the support team had Windows 7, so the need to have Exchange 2003 tools integrated into Windows 7 wasn't there until this morning. ( I always remoted into a Windows XP machine or into the server.)

So after looking into how to get Exchange 2003 tools on a Windows 7 machine, I came up with this.

1. Download the "Exchange System Manager for Windows Vista"
   (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=3403d74e-8942-421b-8738-b3664559e46f&displaylang=en)
2. On the Windows 7 machine, go to Control Panel -> Programs and Features -> Turn Windows features on or off -> Expand Internet Information Services -> Expand Web Management Tools and then install all of the IIS 6 Management Compatibility tools.
3. Open Command Prompt on the Windows 7 machine as an Administrator and navigate to where you stored ESMVISTA.msi. 
4. Run "ESMVISTA.msi /q"
5. You should now be able to open up the properties on a user account through the ADUC and see your exchange tabs.
