License change on same workstation

K

I have been using my own licensed version of Project 2003 Professional for
about a year on my office computer exclusively. We are now beginning to
implement Project Server in our facility, and to keep the licensing straight
we will be replacing my copy of Project 2003 Pro with one bought specifically
for this implementation. My question is:

Is there any way to just change the serial/ID number in the registry without
uninstalling and re-installing the app?

Not that I know of, but an uninstall followed by a reinstall is going to
take all of 5 minutes if that so why bother trying another way? Even if is
possible, opening the regsitry, finding and editing the keys would take just
about as long and wouldn't buy you anything.

Thanks Steve,

We came to the same conclusion here. The problem was that my CD drive
wouldn't read the new CD (it had been acting flakey for a while). I
canabalized a DVD burner (and software) off of a newer machine destined for a
temp and installed it in mine. Did the uninstall and re-install in less than
3 minutes.

Best regards,

Kevin
