WHAT IS THE PRODUCT KEY OF INSTALLING OFFICE XP ?

Posted: 19 Mar 2006 05:34 AM PST

Each set of Office CD has a unique set of numbers. Did you purchase Office
XP separately or was it preinstalled on a computer when you bought it? (It
makes a difference.)

(And please lower your caps. It's considered shouting and that's not a nice
thing to do when you are asking for help. Unless you are bleeding - and in
that case Office's product key shouldn't be high on your list of priorities.
;-) )

Installing Office XP Standard on a new computer

Posted: 18 Mar 2006 05:01 AM PST

You're right about that!

I had two HDD's, one 40GB (the old system drive) that I wanted to keep, and
one 200GB that I formatted right away and wanted to use as my new system
drive. When installing WinXP, it seems that WinXP still regarded the 40GB as
a system drive, even though it installes itself on the 200GB. I found that
out when I now decided to format both drives and reinstall. When I commanded
WinXP setup to remove the old partition on the 40GB, it warned me that it
contained crucial system information (or something along those lines...). So
my personal guess is that that's where the hiccup was.

Now everything is clean and smooth running; Office is in place and my old
data is sitting on a DVD-ROM I burned before the first try. Oh well ...

New Version Of Office Suite

Posted: 17 Mar 2006 10:09 AM PST

Hello,

As I know, the release date of Office 2007 is by the end of 2006. As these
release dates are not yet set in stone there is no exact date available
yet. However, as soon as it becomes available it will be published to the
http://Office.Microsoft.com web site.

If you are interested in the news of Office 2007, as Neo suggested, you can
take a look at the following link:

http://www.microsoft.com/office/preview/default.mspx

I hope this helps.

Regards,

Ada Pan

Office 2003/sp1 upgrade to sp2 --installation point

Posted: 17 Mar 2006 08:45 AM PST

Hi,

Please read the SP2 readme. It explains how to patch your Admin point
and then roll it out to all client PCs. If you're only just doing SP2
you are slack on security.

OfficeXP doesn't remember cd key

Posted: 16 Mar 2006 10:17 PM PST

that's what the problem was that prompted the disk wipe and reinstall. I
don't now, though - reformatted and re-installed WindowsXp so it's all
clean.

Windows Me no longer recognizes Office 2000 programs????

Posted: 16 Mar 2006 02:03 PM PST

Hi,

I have not removed Works from my system --- I tried it and it still opens.

I was able to rebuild the registry via method 1, but the error message still
comes up when I start up the computer, and Office programs won't stay open.

Since installer won't work for Office, I haven't been able to reinstall.

Thanks for your suggestions.... Any more?

Volume Licensing Office 2003 Install for All Users

Actually, I think the "automatic" bit is being done (on our systems) by
Custom Installation Wizard (CIW) which we set to install per machine, so it
may NOT be the default. It's a while since I set this up, but if you check
the deployment guide and the help screens of the CIW you should find the
setting for this. I think CIW basically passes the ALLUSERS value to the MSI
when you eventually run SETUP.

Office March Update KB905756 Error #1646

Posted: 15 Mar 2006 10:04 AM PST

Hi Chad,

Apologies, I had not seen you had quoted the error number in your original
post.

1646 is usually associated with trying to UNINSTALL a patch, so it's very
odd you are getting this error.

So you downloaded the patch, installed as an Administrator, accepted the
license and then got 1646??

Are you sure you have Excel 2003 SP1 or SP2 installed on your machine? Did
you try downloading the patch again?

Cannot uninstall or install MS Office XP (or 2003)

Posted: 14 Mar 2006 11:53 AM PST

Peter Foldes wrote: 
Also Was Office XP already a resident on the system and you then tried
to remove it?
Office XP was installed and running on the PC before any
uninstall/installs were attempted.
I cannot follow the latter as if it was installed or you tried to
install it and was a no go
and then you tried to uninstall it. Off 2003 same story? 
Hello Peter et al,

The server is running Small Business Server 2003 (with exchange 2003).
The sever can (sometimes, it seems) deploy Outlook 2003 to a client
computer. I tried this, using the ConnectComputer feature, etc and the
install aborted. I did not try to remove any software on the client PC
at the time I tried to "deploy" Outlook 2003 to the client.

the user is/was uing Office XP Pro 2002. I also noticed that someone
had previously installed Office 2000 on this same workstation.
For what it is worth, I checked the date on the Office XP setup.exe, it
is 2001.

The user was running Office XP Pro and using the version of Outlook that
comes with Office XP. This was connected to their exchange server, he
could send and receive email.

the user then had a problem opening an email on his machine, this locked
his system, requiring a forced (i.e. unplug computer) reboot. He then
tried to "repair" Office XP using the repair feature of Office XP - no
luck.

This is when we decided to uninstall Office XP and install Office 2003.
The user does have admin privileges. the uninstall was tried as
"Administrator" and as the user. The uninstall failed in for both
users. The same for the install (probably not a good idea to try an
install on this system, and it failed).

That is about the story here.

Hopefully this will give some useful information (other than some
stupidity, etc!)

Thanks,

eric

MSI deployment error 1603

Posted: 14 Mar 2006 04:16 AM PST

Hello Gerry

To be honest i had the 'remove office programs' selected within the MSI.
Would this cause a problem radomly on some machines?

Thanks
