Default Reinstalling Upgraded Office 2003 After Reformat on Hard Drive

I bleieve the following will help you resolve your issue as long as you
have a previous version CD, upgrade or not.

1. Run Office 2003 Setup.
2. In the "User Information" dialog box, type your product key in the
"Product Key" boxes, and then click "OK".
3. In the "Product Compliance Check CD Key" dialog box, click "OK".
4. In the "Product Compliance Check" dialog box, in the "Drive" list,
click the CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive that contains the Office 2003 CD.
5. Remove the Office 2003 CD from the computer's CD-ROM or DVD-ROM, and
then insert either Office XP CD1, Office CD1, or Office 97 CD1 (as
appropriate to your situation). If you are using Office 2000 Small
Business Edition, insert Office 2000 Small Business Edition CD2.
6. Wait approximately 30 seconds to permit the computer's CD-ROM drive
to recognize the CD that you inserted.
7. In the "Product Compliance Check" dialog box, click "OK".
8. When the Microsoft Office 2003 End-User License Agreement (EULA)
appears, remove the CD for the previous version of Office from the
computer's CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive, and then insert the Office 2003 CD.
9. Click to select the "I accept the terms of the License Agreement"
check box after you read the End-User License Agreement (EULA), and
then click "Next".
10. Follow the instructions that are displayed on the screen to install
Office 2003.

| || the CD. When 2003 looks for and cannot find the previous qualifying
| || product, simply swap CDs over and put the older CD in. Point the
| || installer to it and it will confirm that you do indeed have the
| || older suite.
| ||
| || Swap CDs back and the installation of Office2003 will continue on
| || its way.
