Default MS Office 2K Install on WinXP

Does MS Office 2K have 50 trial usages before you have to register the
product?

I just did a clean install of WinXP with SP1a, and MS Office 2K
Professional upgrade. On the install of Off2k all I did was put the
install disk of my prior version in the drive for athentication. It has
been a long time since I've done this installation, but my memory tells
me that there were 50 trials before registration was required. Since
the actual usages does NOT coincide with my memory I thought I'd ask.
TIA!

Regards,


Greg Strong

Hi,

No, the 50-use trial is with Office2002 (XP) and 2003. Office 2000 does not
have activation (but the service packs for it are another matter).
