Generally you can't use your the serial number you have to activate the
trial version unless the trial version is also ULTIMATE 2007. If this
is not the case, then you can download the trial version of ULTIMATE
2007 from MS website. HOWEVER, please make sure you have
cleared/removed all remnants of the old installation from the system as
mixing the two versions is a recipe for disaster and none of the PIG
society members will be able to help you here.

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?
