Re: M.S.Word 2003 already installed,how can I use, I don't have CD .



If you have a computer with Word on it, then you should have the CD. The CD
probably came in a sleeve with a sticker that has a 25 digit code. That
sticker is the Certificate of Authenticity - it means you have a legitimate
copy of Word.

If you don't have the disk, my question would be "Why not?" If you just
bought the computer from a retailer, you need to (1) check thru
**everything** and if you are *positive* you don't have the disk, then (2)
go back to that retailer and let them know. They need to correct the
problem. If the computer was given to you or you bought it used, you need to
go back to the person you got it from and ask them for the disk. If they
refuse or they don't have the disk, your only alternative is to buy Word.

I can't answer whether or not you're SOL, that depends on what information
you find out. (Did I answer it in simple enough terms? I tried.)
