Office 2003 doesn't work.

[Timothy L]

First off, unless you have a legal (genuine) copy of Microsoft Office, you are in violation of the End User
License Agreement (EULA). Essentially, this means that you are running Microsoft Office illegally (whether you
are having problems or not).

Second, Microsoft Office must be installed from a Microsoft Office CD. Without running the setup program on
the CD to install the software (whether or not you choose to run from the CD or run from your computer),
Microsoft Office will not run.

My suggestion, ask someone at work (i.e. your boss or network Administrator) about installing and running
Microsoft Office OR go out and purchase your own copy of Microsoft Office at a local retail store.

Thanks, Timothy. Actually, the copy I have IS a genuine copy of MS Office,
bought and paid for, along with my home pc, by my company. They have a
purchase agreement with microsoft to install Office 2003 into all computers
on their network (this includes my home pc, as it is part of their network).
So I do believe I am adhering perfectly to the EULA.

Second, there seems to be a problem with my home pc's CD-ROM and it won't
play any discs. I do have a 2nd RW CD-ROM, however it will only play Discs
that are writable. So again, if I copy the program to a writable disc, will
it contain the set up files needed to install it?

<I zipped a copy of Office 2003 from my pc at work

It will not work. You need the actual CD that contains the msi file. If like you say that your boss will let you install it on your home PC then why not just bring the original Office CD home with you and install it there. Will your employer let you ?
