Thanks, JoAnn

Is there a way for me to convert the trail version of Office 2007 Small
Business without having to pay for a new key?

Probably because Office knows the difference between an OEM copy and one
that was downloaded from Microsoft as well as the different versions (Small
Business, Pro, etc)

Office 2007 Small Business came preinstalled on my computer. I did not
recieve disks - just the product key. I am having issues with Word, Excel
and Outlook, so I removed Office and installed the trial version. Now, I
cannot activate the trial version using my product key.

Why?

p.s. I installed Office on a second machine using the product key, which
makes a total of two installations.
