Default Convert Office License into Open license?

Hello, I was wondering if it is possible to take Microsoft Office Licenses
(2003 or 2007) and convert them into an open license packagae.

I.E. - We have 40 installations of Microsoft Office Professional each with
their own license. We want to purchase 10 new computers with Office and have
those 10 be on an open license - can we convert the previous 40 for a total
of 50 open licenses, with the ability to add more down the line?

Don't believe you can take retail or OEM licenses and convert to Open
licenses. Check with the link that Tom gave but I think you will be
starting with 10 open licenses and adding to those with new purchases not
10+ 40 then adding new purchases.
