MS Office Forum / Excel / Setup / September 2006Excel Upgrade
Just got a new laptop, but it didn't come with Excel. I am running Micrsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition. My version of Microsoft Works is 8.5, which was installed with Microsoft Suite 2006. Saying that the version is 8.5 (this version was not specified as a requirement on the site), do I still qualify for the "Upgrade" version of Excel 2003? I'd hate to buy it and have it turn out that I should have bought the full version. I find this at http://www.microsoft.com/office/editions/howtobuy/professional.mspx#EQE Upgrade Eligibility Determine whether your current version of Microsoft Office qualifies you for the $329 US upgrade price. The following products qualify: Microsoft Office XP Office XP Developer, Office XP Professional with FrontPage®, Office XP Professional Special Edition, Office XP Professional with Publisher, Office XP Professional, Office XP Small Business Edition, Office XP Standard Microsoft Office 2000 Office 2000 Developer, Office 2000 Premium, Office 2000 Professional, Office 2000 Small Business Edition, Office 2000 Standard Microsoft Office 97 Office 97 Professional, Office 97 Small Business Edition (version 2), Office 97 Small Business Edition (version 1), Office 97 Standard Microsoft Works Works 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, or 8.5 Works Suite 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, or 2006 NOTE.......Works 8.5 is listed Gord Dibben MS Excel MVP >Just got a new laptop, but it didn't come with Excel.

When I scrolled down, I clicked on the link for Excel 2003. From there, I clicked on "How to Buy", which noted the upgrade eligibility. On that window, it did not list Microsoft Works 8.5 an eligibility. I'm just trying to make sure that this is still valid. Any thoughts? Thanks for your assistance. > I find this at > [quoted text clipped - 31 lines] > >qualify for the "Upgrade" version of Excel 2003?

This link to upgrades for Excel 2003 stand-alone does not list Works 8.5 http://www.microsoft.com/office/excel/howtobuy/default.mspx I have no idea why 8.5 is not listed and will keep my nose out of it until I learn how to read. Perhaps you could contact MS The email link at this site promises next day response. http://www.microsoft.com/products/info/render.aspx?view=22&type=mnp&content=22/c ustsrv Gord >The link that you sent me was for Microsoft Office Editions.
