how do I get rid of this statement that is popping up at the bottom of each
form I attempt to change, any document I attempt to design, or any
document... I have no idea how this happened.

Maybe you have a trial version of Office 2003, and the trial
period has ended. Or maybe you have not activated your Office
software.

What happens if you start Word and click on Help | Activate
Product? If you are already activated, a dialog box saying so
will appear. If you are not activated, the Activation Wizard
will start. If you have an expired trial version, a dialog box
will prompt you to enter a valid product key or convert (purchase
a key) online.

First, thanks for responding. I do not have a trial version of Office 2003,
and I have activated the software, as I have my product ID.

But, just to be sure, I followed your advise on going into Word, go to help,
and activate. Once I did this, nothing occurred. It didn't tell me it was
activated, but it didn't tell me it wasn't, and as well I do already have a
Product ID.

I tried using the Office 2003 disk and doing a "repair office to its
original state", that didn't help either.

I am baffled by this one and would appreciate your's or anyone else's
further advise.

P.S. I have had this Office 2003 edition installed on my computer for about 2
years now with no issue. Guess I should have said that earlier. :)
