Default how can i use my product key on trial version


"FPS" wrote in message

I have Office Ultimate 2007 on my computer -- retail version with product
kery. My computer crashed. While it is being repaired, I purchased a
netbook (with NO CD drive) to use until repaired computer is returned.

Netbook has trial version of Office. How can I convert the trial version
into a regular version of Office using the same product key. When I enter
that 25-digit number, it is returned as "invalid".

Again, I do not have a CD drive in the netbook -- so I can't do a fresh
installation.

Anyone?




Load the Install CD onto your HDD (home PC) into a Shared Folder. Use the
Netbook to access the shared folder, and load the program. Input the key
when asked.

The upside is, when you are working with the Netbook, you can print to your
printer at home over the network.
