Hi,

Sorry to say the opposite

It is available since yesterday on my eLicense site.

I'm open Value customer and I'm logged on with my Passport account and trust
me this is the real real final version.

I have Office Enterprise 2007 and Office Professional Plus 2007.

Microsoft is not used to deploy Beta version for Volume License customers
well as far as I know.

Another possibility : this is an error from someone at MS ...

But I have the install source here 100% sure of what I say ...

Thanks anyway ;(

If you found a site that has the final release version of Office 2007 then
I'd make sure that your antivirus is current and proactive. It's not
released to the public yet so you have some sort of an illegal version. No
way in H*ll that I'd put that on my system.

Hi Frederic,

What version of Office are you trying to upgrade? If it's a prerelease
Office 2007 one, you may need to uninstall then restart
before installing Office 2007 release edition.

What version/update level of Windows are you using?

=============

Hi all,

Since last Friday (10th Nov), Office 2007 Pro Plus and Office Enterprise
2007 final edition are available on the MVL download site.

So I downloaded both to see the difference.

I'm under trouble trying to install it.

I double click the setup.exe, I enter the keys I got from the same MVL
portal and then I have the option of Upgrade and Customize the setup. I
choose Upgrade, then the install process starts and after about 5-6 sec I
got
a Browse for foler windows asking me to choose the folder containing the
"Office.en-us\OfficeMUI.msi". I check the proposed folder but it seems
fine,
to be sure, I point to the folder where the file is and the I got
"Invalid
Location".

I tried many times, from DVD, from different folder location (even very
short folder name) without any luck.

Is anyone able to help with this one ?

Thanks

Microsoft just did a genius act. It released it to its Volume License
customers before it went live on TechNet or MSDN.
So, now the volume license customers come to these groups and ask for
help, and none of the MVPs have the RTM build yet, because we depend on
TechNet and MSDN.
Needless to say, none of the add-in developers have an RTM build as well
as none of the people who write all the Office books...

I am not amused, but thankfully MSDN/TechNet are scheduled to have it
tomorrow.

How to ask a question
http://support.microsoft.com/KB/555375

Microsoft just did a genius act. It released it to its Volume License
customers before it went live on TechNet or MSDN.
So, now the volume license customers come to these groups and ask for
help, and none of the MVPs have the RTM build yet, because we depend on
TechNet and MSDN.
Needless to say, none of the add-in developers have an RTM build as well
as none of the people who write all the Office books...

I am not amused, but thankfully MSDN/TechNet are scheduled to have it
tomorrow.

Hi,

Sorry to say the opposite

It is available since yesterday on my eLicense site.

I'm open Value customer and I'm logged on with my Passport account and
trust
me this is the real real final version.

I have Office Enterprise 2007 and Office Professional Plus 2007.

Microsoft is not used to deploy Beta version for Volume License customers

well as far as I know.

Another possibility : this is an error from someone at MS ...

But I have the install source here 100% sure of what I say ...

Thanks anyway ;(

If you found a site that has the final release version of Office 2007
then
I'd make sure that your antivirus is current and proactive. It's not
released to the public yet so you have some sort of an illegal version.
No
way in H*ll that I'd put that on my system.

Hi Frederic,

What version of Office are you trying to upgrade? If it's a
prerelease
Office 2007 one, you may need to uninstall then restart
before installing Office 2007 release edition.

What version/update level of Windows are you using?

Hi all,

Since last Friday (10th Nov), Office 2007 Pro Plus and Office
Enterprise
2007 final edition are available on the MVL download site.

So I downloaded both to see the difference.

I'm under trouble trying to install it.

I double click the setup.exe, I enter the keys I got from the same
MVL
portal and then I have the option of Upgrade and Customize the
setup. I
choose Upgrade, then the install process starts and after about 5-6
sec I
got
a Browse for foler windows asking me to choose the folder containing
the
"Office.en-us\OfficeMUI.msi". I check the proposed folder but it
seems
fine,
to be sure, I point to the folder where the file is and the I got
"Invalid
Location".

I tried many times, from DVD, from different folder location (even
very
short folder name) without any luck.

Is anyone able to help with this one ?

Thanks

Hi,

Sorry to say the opposite

It is available since yesterday on my eLicense site.

I'm open Value customer and I'm logged on with my Passport account and trust
me this is the real real final version.

I have Office Enterprise 2007 and Office Professional Plus 2007.

Microsoft is not used to deploy Beta version for Volume License customers
well as far as I know.

Another possibility : this is an error from someone at MS ...

But I have the install source here 100% sure of what I say ...

Thanks anyway ;(

If you found a site that has the final release version of Office 2007 then
I'd make sure that your antivirus is current and proactive. It's not
released to the public yet so you have some sort of an illegal version. No
way in H*ll that I'd put that on my system.

message Hi Bob,

I'm running Office 2003 Pro SP2 on a Windows XP SP2

I'm trying to upgrade to Office 2007 Final version.

I never installed any beta on this particular machine.

Hi Frederic,

What version of Office are you trying to upgrade? If it's a prerelease
Office 2007 one, you may need to uninstall then restart
before installing Office 2007 release edition.

What version/update level of Windows are you using?

=============

Hi all,

Since last Friday (10th Nov), Office 2007 Pro Plus and Office Enterprise
2007 final edition are available on the MVL download site.

So I downloaded both to see the difference.

I'm under trouble trying to install it.

I double click the setup.exe, I enter the keys I got from the same MVL
portal and then I have the option of Upgrade and Customize the setup. I
choose Upgrade, then the install process starts and after about 5-6 sec I
got
a Browse for foler windows asking me to choose the folder containing the
"Office.en-us\OfficeMUI.msi". I check the proposed folder but it seems
fine,
to be sure, I point to the folder where the file is and the I got
"Invalid
Location".

I tried many times, from DVD, from different folder location (even very
short folder name) without any luck.

Is anyone able to help with this one ?

Thanks

Microsoft just did a genius act. It released it to its Volume License
customers before it went live on TechNet or MSDN.
So, now the volume license customers come to these groups and ask for
help, and none of the MVPs have the RTM build yet, because we depend on
TechNet and MSDN.
Needless to say, none of the add-in developers have an RTM build as well
as none of the people who write all the Office books...

I am not amused, but thankfully MSDN/TechNet are scheduled to have it
tomorrow.

LOL. Doubt it. I am only running 2007, so I'll remove the beta versions
and install 2007, but not as upgrade.

Why don't you remove 2003 and then install 2007?
