Yep, your are right.

Posted: 10 Sep 2007 04:45 PM PDT

MS Office XP's version of MS Office Doent Imaging can open .MDI files but did not have the MS Office Doent Imaging Printer,
Office 2003 and Office 2007 do have that optional installation feature. In some cases you may need to set MS Office Doent
Imaging to 'Not Available', to uninstall it, restart the PC then readd it with the Doent Imaging Writer using Office 2007 choice
in Add/Remove Programs in the Windows control panel.

============= 
OK, you are right. I went back to the machine that had Office 2007 on it
and I went to the "Microsoft Office Tools" folder and clicked on "Microsoft
Office Doent Imaging" and got a message "Insert the Microsoft XP
Professional with Frontpage" (mind you this was from Microsoft Office
Professional 2007), which I did and then, Microsoft Office Doent Imaging
was installed! I did get confused as I thought it couldn't find the .mdi
driver.

So I have two machines that have Microsoft Office Doent Imageing
installed and neither of them will recognize a .mdi file. The only file
format available in the drop down menu is .tif.

So perhaps you can tell me where to get the driver for .mdi files.

Thanks >>

Have Office 2003 and 2007, can't open .mdi files

Office does not install Office Doent Imaging by default. It is included in
Office 2003 and 2007. Go to Add Programs in the control panel, scroll down to
Office, click change, find Office Doent Imaging on your setup disk, run all
from my computer.

To install the upgrade version, one of the following requirements must be
met: . A valid qualifying product, such as Microsoft Office XP, Office 2000,
or Office 97, is installed on your computer.
. The installation media of the valid, qualifying product is

See http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=834008 "You cannot send a
doent as an e-mail message from an Office 2003 program". I believe
the article also applies to Office 2007, but just in case I'm wrong, you
should back up your registry before fiddling with it.

Your best route to solve this issue with the Office Enterprise Edition is to contact the IT person at the Company from where you purchased this Enterprise Edition through the Home purchase program. They are the ones that hold the Volume license and can help you with your issue.

Good point--it may not be clear to the poster that it's not a push of
content; it's a pull from the RSS client.

This site has a pretty nice explanation:

Office 2007 Enterprise vs Ultimate

Posted: 06 Sep 2007 08:42 PM PDT

When it comes to an Excel key, if it was in fact an Excel standalone key it
would only work with an Excel standalone product. Standalone keys are not
interchangable with Suite keys and vice-versa.

Ultimate and enterprise keys are interchangeable however. It really isnt
that odd that you dont have Ultimate components since you have not installed
office using ultimate media which contains those componenets.

Still nothing, I've even got to the trouble of creating another user as

Deploying Office 07 with Group Policy

Posted: 06 Sep 2007 05:43 PM PDT

Hi Tom,

Thanks for your reply and the detail information about how you fixed the
issue. I am glad to hear that the problem has been fixed after extending
the Group Policy scripts time out setting (it is not related to the account
permission as the policy is in computer startup).

If you have any other questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to
contact me. It is always my pleasure to be of assistance.

Have a nice day!

| Hi Emily,
|
| Thanks for your reply. I have done some further testing and can confirm
the
| following:
|
| The computers where installation failed were older computers and took
about
| 20 minutes to install Office 2007. Logging on as a standard user or as an
| administrator makes no difference. The installaion runs smoothly for the
| first 10 minutes until the time out for GP logon scripts is reached. From
| this point on you get a few errors in the event log saying that office
has
| not installed correctly.
|
| Setting the time out to longer fixed the problem. (Computer
| Configuration/Administrative Templates/System/Scripts/Maximun wait time
for
| Group Policy scripts) I set it to 2400 seconds to be safe as another
older
| computer I tested it on took 30 minutes to install.
|
| With the above setting, Office installed without problem even if no one
logs
| on to the computer.
|
| Tom

invalid product key for office 2007

Posted: 06 Sep 2007 05:04 PM PDT

You mention an old computer, so I'm guessing you are now trying to
install your copy of Office 2007 on a new computer? If yes, and if your
new computer came with a free trial version of Office 2007 already
installed on it, then you need to uninstall the free trial software
before you install your purchased copy of Office 2007.
