I am trying to purchase Microsoft Office Edition from my trial and it will
not accept my trial product key, what am I doing wrong?

Purchase Office thru Amazon.com. It's cheaper and I think they are still
offering free shipping. You'll get the CDs instead of just a download.

When the trial version is purchased then the installation CDs should
be mailed to the purchaser.

That's what I was told when I asked about this anyway - buyers not
receiving their installation CDs is such an on-going issue and I
suspect it's one of the reasons behind the trial version instead of
the OEM version.

It just seems like a lot of people post about not getting the CDs because
they ordered it online.

The cost savings is my main reason for recommending Amazon. I can be quite
thrifty (AKA cheap!).

If you happen to see another complaint about not getting the CDs can
you ping me on it??

Users not getting their installation CDs has been a 'crusade' of mine
for the last few years so if users aren't getting their CDs I'd like
to pass this info on to those who told me they would. :)

I sure can. Are you talking about regardless of where they (legally) acquire
Office?

Yep - if it's for Office 2003 regardless of where it was purchased.
Thanks!
