No, 2000 Pro included Access 2000, 2007 Std does not include Access 2007. I would be Very Surprised if M$ lets you 'legally' upgrade from 2000 to 2007, skipping XP and 2003 in the process (and thus failing to fatten M$'s bottom line) ;-). OTOH the first link at "microsoft office upgrade licensing - Google Search" http://www.google.com/search?q=microsoft+office+upgrade+licensing suggests that you may be able to do that (!!) 2007 Microsoft Office system pricing and upgrade information http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/suites/FX101754511033.aspx 2007 Office Suites: Office Standard 2007 Qualifying Products for Upgrade: Microsoft Works 6.0-10; Microsoft Works suite 2000-2006 or later; any 2000-2007 Microsoft Office program or suite; any Microsoft Office XP suite except Office XP Student and Teacher. Good luck with this, but point your "Zones Rep" at that official M$ page.
