You can not use the trial edition as an in place microsoft product to use the upgrade only edition, however, most computers have the full version of microsoft works 9 which does qualify. It has a couple bugs that sometimes require a works update for it to work but it will. Here is a link with a little info on the works update
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/943290.If you don't have works, you might look at getting the full edition. You can also just use the 2010 office which does not really do the upgrade/full edition thing anymore and simply either has download keys, or disc versions. The downloads are cheaper, but you don't get a disk and can only use it on one pc. The home and student disk version can go on 3 computers, and the professional and small business can go on two pcs with the same user. They do state it is for one home pc and one portable pc... All of the download codes can only go on one pc.
