How do I move my copy of Word 2003 from one computer to another?
Save the files and settings described in
http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/General/FilesToBackup.htm. Also back up your documents and any templates you created. Copy the backups to a removable media such as CD-RW or a USB memory stick, being careful to note which folder each file came from (most easily by using a compression program such as WinZip and telling it to save the file paths). Using the original installation disk, install Word on the new computer. If online activation tells you that you've used up all your licenses, you'll have to use telephone activation (follow the on-screen directions or see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/302806). After Word is up and running, restore all your backed-up files into the same locations on the new computer. Finally, use the Control Panel Add/Remove Programs to remove Word from the old computer if required by the license. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |

You should read your Office 2003 End User License Agreement to see
whether you are allowed to transfer the software to another computer. If your copy of Office 2003 came preinstalled on your computer by the computer manufacturer, then it is probably an OEM copy that is licensed for installation only on the computer that the computer manufacturer put it on, and the software cannot be legally transferred to any other computer. speedfilm wrote: |
