I purchased a new computer. Can I install my 2003 Office Pro version onto my
new computer or must I repurchase?

If it is a retail version, you should be able to, though you may have to
activate by phone. If it's an OEM version (came with the computer), then you
can't; it's licensed only for that machine.
