Upgrade from Office 2000 on XP to Office 2007 on a DIFFERENT Compu

[Alan D]

I'm currently running Office 2000 Pro on an XP machine. I'm replacing that
machine with a new Vista computer. I assume I qualify for the upgrade
pricing for the new Office 2007. My questions are:

1) Will the Office 2007 upgrade version install properly on my new Vista
computer even though Office 2000 is not installed on the new computer?

2) Of course I have the original Office 2000 disks, so will the Office 2007
install wizard settle for just looking at the disk and not require me
actually install the old Office 2000 on my new Vista machine?

Thanks for the help!

Hi Alan,

The Office 2007 upgrade retail product should recognize the Office 2000 Pro CD as a qualifier during Office 2007 setup without
needing to install the older version.
