Office 2007 authentication and re-installation

[deeranwith]

I currently have a system with Windows XP operating system and Office 2007
installed. I will be updating to Vista soon and will carry out a full
re-installation after a re-format of the HD.
Are there any issues with the activation of my copy of Office 2007? Do I
have to formally un-install it to allow the software to be re-activated?

Guidance please.

There should be no issues. No, you don't need to uninstall it first.
