**Vista-Office 2000 to Office XP-46 more launches?**
I have a new Dell computer which only had a trial version of Works. I
installed Office 2000 because it contains ALL Office programs (Word, Office, Access, Excel, PowerPoint, Front Page, etc.). Then I installed Office XP over it (Word, Excel Outlook ONLY) to get the XP features I wanted in those programs. Now I'm being told I have only 46 more launches of Office (XP?) before I have to activate it. If I try to activate it and I'm denied, I'm afraid I won't be able to use Office XP at all. Microsoft told me to call Dell. Dell said to uninstall Works, which I did. What now? What should I do, in what order? THANKS! |

THANKS, JoAnn! Neither Microsoft nor Dell were able to give me this simple
answer. ARRRRRRRGH! Editor "JoAnn Paules" wrote in message ...

Both should be been able to tell you this. Let's just assume they didn't
fully understand the question. Have a good afternoon! -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] Tech Editor for "Microsoft Publisher 2007 For Dummies" "Editor" wrote in message ... THANKS, JoAnn!
