Microsoft Office....?

Question

Ok, my laptop has Microsoft Office Small Business Edition 2003 automatically installed but I can't use it without a product key. Anyone who can help?

Answer 1

have a look at the packaging ypur lp came win and there should be some booklet with a long number on it, thats your key. It could be on your lp somewhere as well , look for any stickers with long numbers

Answer 2

You probably didn't buy the product but its still there on your laptop. So this is an trial version though, you still need to insert the serial key. The serial key can be found in your Laptop booklets which came along with your laptop. Open the bag and search through it. You must find 60-90 days trial usage.

Found the key? Insert and use for 60/90 days.

Answer 3

It should have come with a cd. On the packaging for the cd is the key, 25 letters and numbers in groups of 5. If you don't have it, you can ring microsoft and if you explain why they'll give you an authorisation code.

It helps if you speak Indian. :)

Answer 4

Nope. You need product key. You cannot use someone else's because you have to register it with MS and the process uses codes on your specific computer components.

Look to see if they gave you the install discs and see if the code is on them. Or contact the store where you bought it and ask them.

Answer 5

You will have to comb the net for 'serials'.

Do not try 'keygens', they are mostly viruses.

Don't install any 'activeX' controls for the sites either. Same thing.

It is one of the harder ones to find.

I gave up and downloaded Office 2007, which came cracked, and it is l o v e l y.

Answer 6

You can get OpenOffice free. It's an up to date office suite that is compatible with MS and other office suites.
