Just wondering if any one else has had the same problem as myself. My Office 2007 came pre-installed and whenever I open it I am asked for a Validation Key of 25 Digits and Letters. When typed in it says 'Key Invalid'
I phoned the 0800 Nº which conveniently converted into a 0870 Nº at 7p/min in India!! and, to top it all off the women didn't understand English well at all!!

Do Microsoft do this on purpose so as to squeeze even more money out of us??.
I am not prepared to stay on a phoneline to India just for a bloody activation key!!.

Will Office 2003 install on Vista?

First make sure you're typing in the License number exactly the way it is on the CD case.
