Hi Rich,
>From your basic scenario, I'm not following your Standard to Pro 'upgrade' scenario. There isn't an 'upgrade' path for Office
within the same (2003) product series and the Office Service packs are series (2000, XP/2002, 2003) specific but they aren't
'edition' (package) specific.

Hello,
Can someone please help me? I am trying to convert an unmanaged Office 2003
SP1 Standard to a Managed Office 2003 SP2 Professional through Group Policy.
I have created an MST File with the required settings. I created a package
in Group Policy to include the MST. The deployment was successful, however
an exisiting user does not grab the new settings that were applied on the MST
File. If a new user logs in, that user will grab the new settings.
Here are the steps that I took:
1. Deployed Office 2003 Standard SP2 via group policy with the MST File.
(Existing user did not grab settings from MST File). I have to deploy
standard first before upgrading to Pro. If I don't do this, then I would
have Standard and Pro at the same time.
2. Deployed Office 2003 Professional SP2 via group policy with the MST
File. I specified in the package to upgrade from the Office 2003 Standard
SP2 package. Existing user did not grab settings from MST File.
3.
I have tried different settings in Step 9 in the Custom Installation Wizard
file by selecting and deselecting "Mirgrate User Settings." Also tried using
a .ops file with no luck. Also I've even tried converting from unmanaged
Office 2003 SP1 Standard to a managed Office 2003 Standard SP1.
Am I missing a step here? Or is it even possible to have existing users
grab the new settings from the MST File?
Note: It works fine when upgrading from Legacy Office apps (Office
97/2000/XP).
Thanks. >>
