SA allow upgrade to 2003 versions?

[Pat Kelecy]

We got both Project 2002 Pro and Server about a year and half ago by
purchasing UA for our Project license. Does anyone know if this entitles
us to a free upgrade to the 2003 versions? I thought the enrollment period
was for two years, which is why I ask.

Thanks for any info. -Pat

you sould talk to your MS rep about this. There are some differences
between SA and UA and it could affect things.

Thanks for the reply. I didn't realize there were differences. I was told
UA was just to get older products enrolled in SA (back in summer '02) and
that it would "turn into SA".

But I will check with my rep on this, as you suggest. Thanks. -Pat

Now that Im thinking about it that may be true! But in any case talking
to your MS rep is the best step to take when dealing with the exact
details of your agreement. Good Luck

Just as a follow-up, I checked with MS and (at least according to the person
I talked to) my UA automatically provides me with all the latest project
licenses. So in short, I should be able to upgrade to 2003 versions of
both Project Pro and Server for just the cost of the media. I assume this
would include External Connector and CALs as well, but didn't ask
specifically about these.

This UA purchase has turned out to be very good deal.
