I'll bet you didn't tell Microsoft you had already used up your trial period
tho, did you? You managed to cheat them out of another 60 days. Feel good
about not telling the truth and cheating? Your mom and grandmother would be
proud of you.

You BOTH were wrong!!! Microsoft contacted me through email and gave me
the
instructions on how to activate my Office software. It's up and running! I
am
now navigating the software, learning how to use it. Perhaps you were a
bit
too confident of your MS tech knowledge?

DUH, what part of "used the trial ..." and "Yes, we have used up....."
don't you understand? You can't install a trial piece of software
after
the trial period is expired. You will need to purchase the version of
Office you would like installed, and install it or use one of the free
Office clones that are available (www.openoffice.org is a good one.)
JoAnn, I should have let you do this, but I couldn't resist..

Yes, we have used up the trial period of the software. We recently had
to
do
a complete recovery of our HP computer, and therefore reinstalled all
the
software that came with our computer. Now, I'm trying to use the
product
key
that is printed on the back of the software, but an 'invalid product
key'
error keeps popping up.

answered this question.
Did you already use the trial software for a set timeframe and are
trying to
reinstall it?

I have tried many, many times to enter the product key code on the
sticker
that's on the back of my Office 2003 Standard Trial software. I
keep
getting
an error that says that the product key is invalid. So, I contacted
Microsoft
who sent me to a website where I obtained a new product key. That
one
does
not work either. I am still getting the same error message when I
enter
the
new product key also. What should I do?
