Any ideas where I can purchase Office 2002 Excel upgrade for Windows XP Pro
for UK?

The only ones I can find are restricted for USA only!

Thanks.

You can't upgrade Windows XP Pro with an Excel Upgrade. Windows XP is the
operationg system, whereas Excel is an application that runs on that operating
System. You either have to have an existing version of Microsoft Office, or
Microsoft Excel on your machine in order to be able to use an Upgrade version of
Excel. If you don't have either of these then you need to buy either a full
version of Office or Excel.

PC World will sell you any of those

What tickles me though is that the Excel XP upgrade is £105 whereas the Excel
2003 upgrade is only £89 - Go Figure. Full product price is £199.

If you have kids at school then you should take a look at the Student / Teacher
version, which is a lot cheaper, and will give you a full 2003 MS Office suite
for the price of the Excel XP Upgrade.
 
Hi Ken,

You misread my question.

To make it plain My OS is Windows XPPro, with Office 2000. I want to upgrade
my Excel to Office 2002 for a computer with the above OS.

Where can I purchase the software? The only ones I can find are for the USA
market. I want one for UK.

Plain enough?

A computer software store in the UK that sells MS products should have the
software you need

Any of the links I gave you will work fine, and all will be UK. There is a PC
World in almost every town, so you shouldn't have any problem finding one - Or
you can even buy it online from them.
