Office 2007 Enterprise Volume, success, Project/Visio 2007 failed

[Shawn B.]

Greetings,

I successfully installed Office 2007 Enterprise from my MSDN subscription
using the MSDN volume keys (VA 1.0). When I go to install Project or Visio
2007, the instruction at the MSDN download say that if I must use in
Terminal Services to use the "Office 2007 Applications" key. So I insert
the 2434.18 DVD and attempt to install either Project or Visio 2007 and
neither the "Office Applications" or "Office Suites" VA 1.0 keys work. The
installer complains invalid. Does that DVD actually require me instead to
use the standard retail activation key? Why won't it allow me to use my
volume key? I have two MSDN Team Suite accounts and it won't accept the
volume keys from either.


Thanks,
Shawn

We'll, thanks for all the replies <grin> ...

I finally figured out my problem. It appears that the Visio 2007 and
Project 2007 DVD media are not volume license copies so I had to download
the ISO images from my MSDN volume account and the Office Applications key
worked fine.


Thanks,
