I was happy when I saw the Beta release announcement since I have used the
2003 version several times though now have Office 2007. At the time of the
beta announcement I did not need the program. Now that I do...where is it?

I have clicked on all the download links to find that the page does not
exist.

Did I miss some critical piece of information along the way?

has instructions on obtaining it -- is that what you are trying? I haven't
actually tried to obtain it so I am not sure if the instructions work.

Thanks Brian. That is exactly what I am looking for but...unfortunately that
link/process does not find the download.

I have followed the link you offered (and several others just like it) to
the Microsoft Connect site...log in...search for Producer 2007...find
link..."Page not found"...

My sense is that something either went terribly wrong during the Beta test
or there was a change of heart as to whether this should ever have been
released as an ongoing tool.

If someone knows any information on this...I would love to know as well.

I finally found the location of the beta version
(https://connect.microsoft.com/content/content.aspx?ContentID=8480&SiteID=566)

Key information to know however is that the site says the Beta will stop
functioning Sept 30, 2008. After that you will need an updated beta version
before the final version is released later in the Fall/Winter timeframe.
