No. You need to remove all Office 2007 beta versions before installing
2007 RTM.

Any advice on what to do if Office 2007 B2TR uninstall fails? About a
minute after starting, it just quits and says that the uninstall was not
completed.

I have quite a tidy XP SP2 system, my Temp directory is clear, and I've just
rebooted as well.

What's the next step?

Did you try uninstalling the B2TR patch or did you try uninstalling
B2? Make sure you are uninstalling B2 rather than the patch.

If that's not it then check your error log and see if you can
determine the cause of the failure.

Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup. Requests for
assistance by email can not be acknowledged.
