Why a trial when I paid $156.48 for Office

Did you have trial version already installed on your machine before you
bought the retail version? If so then you did not follow the proper
procedure to install te retail version. You need to uninstall your
trial version before you install the retail version.

Office 2k SBE on Windows 2k with limited user permissions...

Be advised that upgrades from win9x almost always fail for any number of
reasons. Save yourself some time and trouble, given that you'll more than
likely end up with an unstable OS with all the remnants/ corruption left
behind from the upgrade. Best to blow it all away and go for the clean
install.

To do a clean install, either boot the Windows 2000 CD-Rom or setup disks.
The set of four install disks can be created from your Win2k CD-rom; change
to the \bootdisk directory on the cd-rom and execute makeboot.exe (from dos)
or makebt32.exe (from 32 bit) and follow the prompts.

When you get to the point, delete the existing NTFS and or other partitions
found. After you delete the partition(s) abort the install, then again
restart the pc booting the CD-Rom or setup disks to avoid unexpected drive
letter assignments with your new install.

During Windows 2000 setup, at some point, will want to confirm the previous
operating system for the upgrade; at that point you'll simply insert the
qualified product install CD for it to verify. Then the install will
proceed.

Check the pc, mb or hardware manufacturer's web site for the latest bios and
or Windows 2000 drivers for your devices.

Be sure to apply these to your new install before connecting to any network.

TMA,

Open any Office Applications (say Word) and do this:

1) Help, Detect & Repair
2) Restore my shortcuts while repairing

Office 2003 CD Has Read Errors

Keep in mind that there's a difference between a license and the media
on which the software exists. As long as you have the license key, you
can use any copy of the CD to install the application. I don't think
that any manufacturer has gotten to the point where license key's are
tied to a specific manufactured CD or other media.

HOW DO I REINSTALL OFFICE2000 WITH DAMAGE TO CD DISK

Posted: 14 Nov 2005 03:31 AM PST

If the surface of the CD is damaged, there are methods by which it may be
"re-surfaced". Check with your local record - oops - music store. They
typically carry the devices for such things. I have successfully used the
method in the previous post as well. Making a copy of the disk seemed to do
the trick.

How to add filters/converters to Office/Excel 2003?

Wow, that worked great -- I think I have the filters installed now.
Although I don't see them in the reigistry, I am able to save a range
to a GIF file. My excel macro still crashes on the save part, but I'll
investigate that further as I hadn't used that macro since Office XP.

Thanks again!!!!
