Office 2007 SBE license / Activation. "Masaki Kuraoka" <masakikura[ at ]verizon.net> 6/14/2007 10:41:18 PM Hello there. I am novice, so please be kind. I bought Office 2007 Small Biz edition. It came with nice plastic box. I installed it on Notebook PC and activated. I had no problem with that. My problem was I don't like user interface of office 2007. So, I bought Office 2003 SBE...... My question is Can I use this Office 2007 on another PC? Can I re-activate it??? If so, how do I do it? Call Microsoft to explain my situation? Thanks in advace. Matt

Why not get accustomed to it now so that by the time it becomes more popular, you'll be a whiz at it.

Re: Office 2007 SBE license / Activation. "Masaki Kuraoka" <masakikura[ at ]verizon.net> 6/15/2007 3:55:51 PM Well, If you are using Office 97 to 2003, you are very much accustomed to that interface. Old and novice person like me can't go into that new area of interface without frustration. If you frustrate too much by using Office 2007, I will loose focus on what I wanted to do with Office 2007. Business tools itself shouldn't be source of frustration. I had enough frustration elsewhere already. Anyway, Thank you for your encouragement. PS: Is there any option to change to old interface on Office 2007? "JoAnn Paules" <jl_paules[ at ]hotNOSPAMmail.com> wrote in message news:0A8379C1-10BB-4B0A-AA4E-F39562CA6C00[ at ]microsoft.com...

Re: Office 2007 SBE license / Activation. "JoAnn Paules" <jl_paules[ at ]hotNOSPAMmail.com> 6/15/2007 5:29:01 PM I am accustomed to the "old way". I;'ve beedn using it for many years now but I'm forcing myself to learn the Ribbon. I still have a few years until I retire (not as many as I need to earn enough money but too many years before I can sleep in late) - I can't afford to be left behind. Patrick Schmidt has an add-in that you can purchase and download which will give you something akin to the old style menus. http://pschmid.net/office2007/index.php -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] ~~~~~ How to ask a question http://support.microsoft.com/KB/555375 "Masaki Kuraoka" <masakikura[ at ]verizon.net> wrote in message news:%23DA%23mW2rHHA.4888[ at ]TK2MSFTNGP03.phx.gbl...
