Upgrading Office Home and Student 2007 to Office Standard 2007
I originally activated Office Home and Student 2007 on my laptop. Subsequent
to acquiring that license I began to use my laptop for a business. I read the upgrade requirements for Office Standard as allowing an upgrade from any version of Office 2000-2007 to mean that I could upgrade my license for commercial use for the extra $280 or whatever. I purchased the license and installed the software on top of my existing version. It accepted the new license key no problem, but it still says "non-commercial use" at the top of all tools. How does one get the tools to recognize that they are licensed for commercial use--I don't want to come across as a license scofflaw in my business presentations.

Upgrading Office Home and Student 2007 to Office Standard 2007
Do I need the disk? It was preinstalled on my laptop and when I upgraded I
did it online. I have both product keys, though. I suppose the OEM may have included a CD, I guess I'll try to find it. Any way to do with one of the versions that I have in my purchase history (i.e. the version I originally activated) that I can still download?

You're going to need something but I'm not sure what in your case. (I don't
use OEM software.) Maybe someone else can give you that answer. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] Tech Editor for "Microsoft Publisher 2007 For Dummies" "KC NY" wrote in message ...
