Default Can't upgrade to Office 07 from Works 9.0?

I am running a new HP e9180t that came with Mictosoft Works 9.0.
I recently purchased the Microsft Office 2007 Small Business suite upgrade,
because the Works 9.0 is listed as a Qualifying Product for Upgrade on MSFT's
website (http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/pr...54511033.aspx).
However, when trying to install the Office 07 Suite, it prompts me for the
location on a previous version of Office on my hard disk and when I direct it
to the Works folder location, it tells me that its not a product that
qualifies for an upgrade. Can anyone help?
thanks

That looks like it should solve my problem. I'll give it a shot later this
week.
thank you very much for the help!
