Re: Product Key is not working

Your 2003 key could not have worked for the 2007 version.

I assume that you bought some sort of downloaded version of 2003 and never
made a backup disk?

Thanks for your response, Peter.

So even if I purchased a product key that they said was good for "a
lifetime," there's no way I can gain access to a copy of Off 03 without
being
in posession of the disc? I'm sure you can understand, I'm kind of
reluctant
to pay $100 for something that I don't really need. Off 03 worked fine for
me.. :(

Office 2003 key will NOT work on a Office 2007. Go out and purchase and
Office 2007
suite and then you will have the proper key

You probably also made you Office 2003 key null and void when you used it
on the
Office 2007 Trial as you posted

I could've sworn I posted this question the other day, but now I can't
find
it on the forum.

Anyway, I purchased MS Office 2003 a year or two ago, so I should have
a
valid product key for that version. When I bought a new computer, it
came
with a trial-version of MS Office 2007 installed (Vista OS). To the
best of
my knowledge, I entered my product key for Office 03 at the prompt for
the
Office 07 trial version, and it worked fine.

I've just recently restored my system to factory settings, and now my
product key for Office 03 won't work in the prompt for Office 07. What
can I
do? I've looked for places to download the 03 version, but most sites
just
offer service packs or updates. And the original disc I got is at my
parent's
house in another country.
