Default 2007 setup/ Remove '03 first?

On the same page where you have the option to "download now' is the option for "get product keys."

After furious head scratching, asked:

| I'm an MSDN subscriber and was able to download the RTM Office 2007
| pro
| from the website, but have not seen a product key posted there. Does
| anyone know the ETA for this?

|||||| Beth,
||||||
|||||| From your; or Millies post in this thread; I went
|||||| there;grabbed that utility; and it did show some B2TR stuff
|||||| still lingering about. So I just highlighted the office stuff
|||||| and said remove. Seems to have worked; nothing else crashed!!
|||||| And since I heard Office 2007 just got released on Technet this
|||||| afternoon, gonna wait to try it; servers are probably really
|||||| busy. Just became a subscriber; so I'm waiting my turn.
|||||| That utility got stuff the uninstall missed.

||||||| I know the Windows Cleanup Utility was used for similar issues
||||||| when trying to get B2TR installed and folks were successful
||||||| using it which is why I'm wondering if there are new issues
||||||| with it for uninstalling B2TR.
|||||||
||||||| Anyway, I'm hoping if Patrick has something he'll be along to
||||||| post it - he's usually good about letting us know when he has
||||||| something on his blog. :-) (I've yet to master the ability to
||||||| quickly search a blog to find what I'm looking for - even with
||||||| Google and the Google toolbar to help me. grin)
|||||||
||||||| Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup. Requests

||||||| After furious head scratching, Beth Melton asked:
|||||||
|||||||| Anyway, I suspect it's due to B2TR getting delivered as a
|||||||| patch and the Windows Installer would only remove B2 and the
|||||||| B2TR references would remain. I'll have to ask around to make
|||||||| sure for future reference, though.
