Hi, Larry,

In general, you can upgrade any version of Windows Vista and Windows 7 to
Windows 7 Enterprise, as long as you aren't changing architectures. That is,
you can't upgrade 32-bit Windows to 64-bit Windows. Windows 7 Ultimate and
Windows 7 Enterprise are the same product, but you should be able to change
Ultimate to Enterprise by performing an upgrade. 

There are some issues in activating non-volume-license upgrades of Windows 7
when you do a clean install, but it sound like that's not going to be an
issue for you.

If you have a specific scenario you want to discuss, feel free to contact me
directly.
