I have Visio Standard 2003 installed on my Windows XP
Box. I have purchased the Visio Professional 2003
Upgrade. On attemepting installation this fails because
I haven't got a qualifying Visio Installation.

Is this correct? Have I been mis-sold the upgrade
package?

Thanks in anticipation,


Tom

Hello Tom,

Visio 2003 Standard is not one of the qualifying product for upgrade into Visio 2003 Pro. Find the following link about the

Hi,

This doesn't appear to make sense.

If you have an older version of the Vision Software, then
you can use the Professional Upgrade. However, if you
have a more recent version of Visio Standard then you
cannot upgrade. Penalised for more recently bought a
Visio Product!!!!

Regards,

Tom

The normal upgrade is from one version to the next, but keeping the same
edition (Standard or Pro). You are asking for an upgrade by edition within a
version. I'll see if I can get an answer about that and the other possible
upgrade (new version, different edition)

I "walked" into this one as well. Not to happy is there any way around this problem. My old version (V4) is to old to qualify and of course the new one is to new. Its an expensive lesson I suppose and after 20+ yrs in computing I should have known better. I won't make this mistake again!
