If i have a prerelease version for a program will i get a free update for the
final release for the program such as "Microsoft Office Professional 2007" of
which i do have a valid key for the product. Would this be possible?

Questions about Office 2007 should be posted to the beta news groups for
which you have the login information in the beta invitation email you
received.

how did you get the product key? i have the pre realease also, but i can't
get the key?

One word - warez.

It is not in general release, only to beta testers and partners. Ergo,
warez unless the OP belongs to one of these groups. Both groups have access
to the appropriate news groups. Ergo, strike 2.

If you have the pre-release as well, but have no product key (supplied to
beta testers and partners), guess what? Yep, strike three.
