Can I change the license level of a purchased copy of Office?

[escKey]

I purchased a copy of Office XP Standard Ed. (version 2002). I have never
installed it. Now I'd like to; however, I'd like to trade my single install
license for a teacher/student license. Does anyone know who I can contact to
make this happen?

escKey,
Not possible with a retail single user license copy.
For approx. 149.00 US, you can purchase the STE edition of Office 2003 with
3 installations if you qualify. See here:

MS Office XP Standard Edition and Office XP Student/Teacher's
Edition are basically the same package. The Standard Edition
(retail) supports 2 installs, the XP Student/Teachers Edition,
only one.

Microsoft's return policy is basically within the 1st 30 days
of purchase.
