As for your datasource connections, take an archive in CFAdministrator prior to uninstalling CF7. You can then reimport this after CF8 is installed.
You could probably install CF8 from the full developer edition installer available at Adobe, then enter your license keys? Not sure if it will require/accept the multiple license keys you'd have though -- your CF7 key, and the CF8 upgrade key. Probably someone here has direct experience with this. > Having trouble getting to houseoffusion.com to look at specific > archives, so have quick and specific question if I could trouble y'all: > > Purchased upgrade from ColdFusion 7 to 8, Standard Edition - XP Pro & > IIS web server.
