Office 2003 Product ID - Correct amount of numbers in it? LeahE 11/5/2008 7:35:06 PM I have installed Office 2003 once on my desktop and my daughter now wants to install it on her laptop for school. I gave her the product ID that I have under "Help." She just sent me a text msg frantic saying one number was missing. Before I double check, I want to make sure - is there a certain amount of numbers/letters in the product key and perhaps she just didn't write it down correctly. I know this is a ridiculous question (you may roll your eyes) but I would appreciate a quick helpful answer. :-) Thanks for your patience.

Re: Office 2003 Product ID - Correct amount of numbers in it? "Milly Staples [MVP - Outlook]" <what[ at ]ever> 11/5/2008 11:49:20 PM Um, can't your count YOUR installation ID (orange sticker) to find out? That is different from your Product ID found under Help.. However, I have to ask, is this a Students and Teachers edition or a Home and Student edition? Otherwise, you may be violating the license for other suites that allow an installation on 2 devices used by the SAME person. -- Milly Staples [MVP - Outlook] Post all replies to the group to keep the discussion intact.

Re: Office 2003 Product ID - Correct amount of numbers in it? LeahE 11/6/2008 6:57:00 AM UM, I bought my copy while attending UW. I talked to the school today and they looked up the Product Key for me from when I bought it. I did not have the disks in the same covers I bought them in and therefore no longer HAD the orange sticker. My bad. I was not violating anything.
