Hi Becky, What happens if you select Help Activate Product? If it says the software is already activated, then see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/LockedFiles.htm. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org |

I same message has started appearing in all of my office applications since
last week. I have been using office (Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition 2003 - not a trial version) with no problems for the past month. I have tried HelpActivate product but nothing happens. Is it possible that I have locked office by inadvertently pressing something on the keyboard by mistake because I can see no other reason why this has happened? Thanks for your help. "Suzanne S.
