The upgrade policy for any version of Microsoft Visio was for any version of Visio since it became a Microsoft product. Visio 5 was released by ShapeWare/Visio Corporation.

Lego Nxt Bluetooth Program. Visio Technical Plus ( v. 5.0 ) - complete package overview and full product specs on CNET. Coreldraw Home And Student X7. Visio technical free download, visio technical freeware and shareware download.

Their last version was Visio 2000. Microsoft's first version was Microsoft Visio 2000 (Visio 2000 with a few patches plus MS branding.) So Visio 5 will not be an acceptable product for the upgrade. Microsoft Sidewinder Game Voice Drivers Windows 7 there.

The last version of Visio that was released for 16 bit was Visio 4.1, Visio 5 was only released as a 32 bit program. (See Visio History (yes, I know, that I need to update that page;-) ) ) John. The original Visio MVP (since 1993) Visio.MVPs.org. My case is similar but my upgrade version is Visio Pro 2002 instead of 2003. I bought a new laptop and uninstalled Visio Pro 2002 (that required the Visio 5 to be fully installled on the machine to proceed) off my retired home PC.

This all worked fine in XP. The Visio Pro 2002 won't load because it wants Visio 5 installed and as the thread leader points out Visio 5 won't load on Windows 7. I would be willing to buy an upgrade If I would know the installer covers cases like this perhaps by verifying the visio 5 disk then then visio 2002, then then latest. In cases such as mine I really just trying to have at home the tool I use at work for the odd project and I can't justify repurchasing something I have on my work laptop because the version's came from the other company. Thanks for the history link and policy clarification.
