Vista & Office 12 Beta-1

[Scott Kim]

I installed the Office Beta-1 on Vista beta 2 5308.

I wanted to install Office 12 Beta-1 Tech Refresh. Vista would not let me
uninstall.

The office program woul not let me upgrade. Any solution? or work around?

[Zack Whittaker \(R2 Mentor\)]

You cannot upgrade from Office 12 Beta 1 to the new Office 2007 Beta 1
Refresh. Although the new software supports Vista 5308, baadddd things
happen if you don't follow the FAQ's on BetaPlace ;o)

What are you concerned about Kevin?.
This ng is about Vista, which is currently being beta tested and Scott asked
a related question.
If there is a problem with "Office 12 Beta-1 Tech Refresh" then we
understand that it is in Beta stage too.

It (Microsoft Office 2007) is also under an NDA (Non Disclosure Agreement)!

Newsgroup's like this one!

No, the 2007 Office System is no longer under NDA anymore. However, things
such as the Server side to things... well we can't even name what the name
of the Virtual Office will be... so that's under NDA. If you check
BetaPlace, you'll see that we are allowed to blog, talk about and discuss
openly about 2007 Microsoft Office System... it's the G******** Server side
to things we can't talk about because that's a seperate thing altogther :o)

Easy way to think about it, is the core programs (Word, Excel, Access,
Powerpoint, and Publisher) can be discussed, anything else we have to
keep mum about! But I'm guessing Kevin already knew that... :)

I, as a beta tester of Microsoft Office 2007, am very aware that I'm under
NDA on certain portions of the suite. Further, I know what I can and cannot
discuss in a public forum. This includes: Microsoft Office 2007 client
applications; specifically refering to client-side features only in Word,
Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, OneNote, InfoPath, Access, Project, Visio and
Publisher.

Before you start telling beta testers what we can and cannot discuss about
Microsoft Office 2007 beta, I would suggest you go to the beta site and
refresh your memory, because it seems you don't have it quite right.

Why not? Microsoft has given specific permission to talk about what's
already public. What we can and cannot talk about is on the beta site. I'd
suggest you go look before you get into a quagmire.
