Default Product key problem

On May 16, 8:35*pm, Stella wrote:
My laptop was bought over a yaear ago with preinstalled Microsoft office,
which I never bothered to use before now. Every time i've received a Word
document, the box popped out and asked me for the product key but i didn't
know where to look for it, so I could only read the documents.
Now I need Word for doing my home esseys and I downloaded a free version of
microsoft office, promising all of the applications.
BUT, the product key was asked again and when I went to the Microsoft Office
site for getting it - the reply was that it wasn't found and that I needed to
check if I was connected in internet. Of course I was connected!
I tried to get the product key via the icon on my lap-top - same result.
After reading some of the post in here - I found the product key on the
bottom of my machine and I typed it but then I got the reply that it was not
the right product key. I AM IN DESPAIR - I NEED ALL THE APPLICATINS, but WORD
is the MOST URGENT at the moment!


You probably have a Trial Only version of Office - which basically
means that you don't have it at all (sorry to give you bad news). You
will have to go out and purchase it (WORD). The number of the bottom
of your machine is not the Product Key for Office.

If my comments have helped please hit Yes.

Thanks.
