Checked with acouple paint stores and sites ,, you can paint latex over oil or visa versa. The oil surface has to be sanded down for adhesion purposes but it works. Have done it many times in the past with no problems........... For interiors:
From Sherwin Williams Representatives email reply:::::::
You can safely apply latex over oil, or oil over latex, but only if the previous finish is (1) flat, or (2) has been sanded. If in doubt about what's there, you may want to cover first with a primer.

you can probably get 10 different opinions or responses. i found 4 different ones in about 10 minutes searching the web!!
