CAN'T FIND INSTALLED VERSION OF MS OFFICE PROFESSIONAL ED 2003

C

CypressJB

Just bought a new HP computer which came with Microsoft Works, and a 60-day
trial of Office 2003. I received a copy of Microsoft Office Professional
Edition 2003 from work (in a sales kit) as a gift. I installed the new
program, successfully, but when I try to open Word or Excel, it asks me for
the product registration # and when I type it in, it says not acceptable or
something like that. I really don't want to pay $35 just to find out how to
access my new version of Office Professional, but I am at my wit's end trying
to figure this out. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Did you uninstall the trial version first?
