| | Help with Office 2007 Purchase. Hey: I don't know the proper place to ask these questions, hope you don't mind. My computer came with a 60 day trial of Office 2007 and it expires soon. If I decide to purchase the license on line, how is the data handled. What I mean is, am I able to download and save a copy of the suite? Do they simply update my existing installation or maybe just send me a new license key? I want to be able to install Office if I need to re-install my programs. I have burned a couple of DVDs that contain all my factory installed software so the initial program data for Office 2007 is saved. I'm wondering if that, plus a new license, will give the ability to re-install if necessary. Thank you, Ed -- Windows Vista Home Premium 64-BIT SP1 Intel Core 2 Duo CPU T5550 @ 1.83GHz 4.00 GB RAM 300 GB HDD |
