Can't convert from 2007 Home and Student trial to regular version

[Dot Young]

I downloaded the trial and liked it. Then I bought the software and ran the
install. Even after install it identifies itself as the trial version and it
runs a configuration every time I open Word. I paid for this and don't want
it to expire when my trial expires. Please help - or help me figure out how
to contact Microsoft about this.
Thanks.

If it was my computer, I'd dump the trial. (After I backed up my documents,
of course.)

I had the same issue with the trial version that came installed with my new
Vista laptop. Even after purchasing and activating, the title bar still read
"Microsoft Word non-commercial use (Trial)".

Having saved the executable I downloaded when purchasing, I uninstalled the
trial version and reinstalled. No luck; though Office is fully functional
(and a pleasure to use), it still says "trial".

Could it be that this will go away once the trial period is over in April?

If it was my computer, I'd dump the trial. (After I backed up my
documents, of course.)

Personally I don't understand my it's such a big deal what the title bar
says or doesn't say but............. I'd be more concerned about whether or
not Office was going to work after April.
