Hi
I copied the following list from another discussion. Is this list still
accurate for Office Professional 2007 Upgrade?

can be a retail or OEM edition.

Simple answer is NO. The list is not accurate for Office 2007. All
references for Office 97 are deleted and Office 2003 is added. So the full
qualification for upgrade to Office 2007 is now:
Microsoft Works 6.0–10
Microsoft Works suite 2000–2006 or later
any 2000–2007 Microsoft Office program or suite
any Microsoft Office XP suite except Office XP Student and Teacher.
