Office 2003 Product ID - Correct amount of numbers in it?
I have installed Office 2003 once on my desktop and my daughter now wants to
install it on her laptop for school. I gave her the product ID that I have under "Help." She just sent me a text msg frantic saying one number was missing. Before I double check, I want to make sure - is there a certain amount of numbers/letters in the product key and perhaps she just didn't write it down correctly. I know this is a ridiculous question (you may roll your eyes) but I would appreciate a quick helpful answer. :-) Thanks for your patience. |

The product ID is not under Help, its the code on the orange label on the cd
case "LeahE" wrote in message ... I have installed Office 2003 once on my desktop and my daughter now wants to install it on her laptop for school. I gave her the product ID that I have under "Help."

Office 2003 Product ID - Correct amount of numbers in it?
Um, can't your count YOUR installation ID (orange sticker) to find out?
That is different from your Product ID found under Help.. However, I have to ask, is this a Students and Teachers edition or a Home and Student edition? Otherwise, you may be violating the license for other suites that allow an installation on 2 devices used by the SAME person. -- Milly Staples [MVP - Outlook] Post all replies to the group to keep the discussion intact.

Office 2003 Product ID - Correct amount of numbers in it?
UM, I bought my copy while attending UW. I talked to the school today and
they looked up the Product Key for me from when I bought it. I did not have the disks in the same covers I bought them in and therefore no longer HAD the orange sticker. My bad. I was not violating anything. "Milly Staples [MVP - Outlook]" wrote: Um, can't your count YOUR installation ID (orange sticker) to find out? That is different from your Product ID found under Help..
