If you have no previous version of Office on your XP Home OS, that is the reason you get the error messag
"no qualifying product" etc...
Since you mentioned Office 97 as an upgrade, if you have the previous version
Try this: when you recieve the error message, insert your previous version to "show" it to your upgrade

What you think isn't true. XP can handle files that were created by a
previous install of 95 or 98.

Did you check that your hardware is capable of running XP. Use the
tools provided by Microsoft prior to upgrading.

Hope this is useful to you. Let us know.
