I have MSFP2002 installed on my desktop and wish to also
install it on my laptop for travelling and customer
conveniences. The problem is that when I try to activate
it on the laptop it tells me it's already activated on my
Desktop. How can I install it to my laptop without having
this annoying activation disallow me to use it for a
limited period of time? My FP2002 is a registered product
and I feel I should be able to use it on any computer of
mine I use without having to buy a new program for each
system. I'm just a small business with only myself using
the program. It's not in my budget to keep buying a new
program for just 2 computers.

Please respond asap via email

You are correct in regards to wanting to use it on a desktop and a laptop
and expecting to be able to do this. MS has actually allowed this for a long
time, though it's often to buried in the license agreement for most people
to read. MS allows one activation for your desktop (primary system) and then
when you activate it on your laptop you just have to call product support
services and let them know that you want to activate it on your laptop as
well.

Hope this helps,
