MS Office 03 Update - wrong key error
Works 8 is installed now I want to install MS Office 2003 Pro Update disk, I
get an error message that says the product key I have entered requires existing Microsoft Office 97, 2000 or XP. This has worked previously on this PC, before the format reload. Any help?

You are trying to install an Upgrade version of Microsoft Office but there
is no pre-existing version of Office on the computer. Daddy "Fieger" wrote in message ...

Plain Works is not a qualifier but Works Suite with Word may be.

MS Office 03 Update - wrong key error
With all due respect to LVTravel, I don't think that Word - or any single
component of Office - qualifies one to upgrade to an Office suite. That would be like buying a set of tires and using them to upgrade to a complete car. ;-) Daddy "LVTravel" wrote in message ...

Plain Works is not a qualifier but Works Suite with Word may be. You may be totally correct as I have never used a single program to upgrade to a suite. The reason I posted this is that in older versions of Office suites a single program did allow installation (in some circumstances) of the full suite.
