Go back to 2003 from trial 2007, however 2003 is not yet installed
New computer (Vista) Couldn't find my 2003 office product key at the time so
I downloaded the 2007 office trial. Now I don't really want to pay the price again..so do I simply uninstall 2007 and reinstall my 2003? I have several files saved in Excel and many emails also. Will I lose everything if I do this? Also, how many times can the 2003 License key be used? My CPU fried on my old puter so I already reinstalled it 1 time on it. Now I am on a new computer (with the 2007 trail) Thanks |

If 2003 came preinstalled on the old computer, you can't use it on the new
computer. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] ~~~~~ How to ask a question http://support.microsoft.com/KB/555375 "smileydb" wrote in message ...

Uninstall 2007, install 2003. You will probably need the compatibility pack
unless you remembered to save your docs as the older version. As for the emails..........search the archives of this group. I think that you will need to do something if you don't want to lose them. I'm sorry I can't tell you what - I've never had to deal with that problem. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] ~~~~~ How to ask a question http://support.microsoft.com/KB/555375 "smileydb" wrote in message ...

A uninstall & reinstall of OL, even a different version does not impact on
the main OL data file - the *.pst file(s) - however a backup is allways reccommended, after all you are dealing with a PC If you own a retail version you can reinstall/activate as often as you have to, allthough you may have to use phone activation "smileydb" wrote in message ...

PLEASE REPLY DIRECTLY TO THANK YOU, JOHN A. Stop shouting. Posting in all caps is considered rude. B. Do not ask for an email reply in Usenet, other's may be interested in your problem. C. Do not hijack someone else's thread. D. The key that came with the trial version should work with the trial version, check carefully to be sure you're entering it correctly. -- XS11E, Killing all posts from Google Groups The Usenet Improvement Project: http://blinkynet.net/comp/uip5.html |
