How do I get a product key?
1. Make sure that you are entering the correct key. It's not the one stuck
to the back of your computer. 2. Turn on bright lights - several of the characters can be easily misread. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] Tech Editor for "Microsoft Publisher 2007 For Dummies" "*I*Love*Cereal*" wrote in message ...

Okay, I've been typing in the wrong key then. I'm guessing I will have to
call the store where the computer was purchased so that they can give me the code. Right?? "JoAnn Paules" wrote: 1. Make sure that you are entering the correct key.

How do I get a product key?
Computer manufacturers often install a trial version of Microsoft Office.
If you are getting a prompt to type in a Product Key when opening a Microsoft Office program, it s likely the trial period is over and you'll need to purchase a license (product key) for Microsoft Office. The product key affixed to your computer is for Windows Vista (the operating system) and not for Microsoft Office. Please review the following: How to determine whether you have a trial edition of a 2007 Office suite or program installed: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/927920/en-us How to convert a trial version of a 2007 Office suite or program to a full retail perpetual license version: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/927756/en-us How to buy the 2007 Microsoft Office suites: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/su...px?ofcresset=1 -- Carey Frisch Microsoft MVP Windows Desktop Experience - Windows System & Performance --------------------------------------------------------------- "*I*Love*Cereal*" wrote: I have a new computer and when I enter the product key a message tells me that the code is incorrect.

Call the computer manufacturer and ask them where they put the key. I would
suggestgoing thru all of your paperwork before doing that. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] Tech Editor for "Microsoft Publisher 2007 For Dummies" "*I*Love*Cereal*" wrote in message ...
