Office Compliance

[JaneS]

I want to check that all of the office products installed on our PCs have
valid licenses. My software shows exactly which component is installed on
each machine, but the licences are for a paricular version of Office. How
can I find out exactly what is covered by the various Office versions (some
quite old) to make sure that someone doesn't for example have too recent a
version of Word installed (etc.).
TIA

You can download the Microsoft Software Inventory Analyzer Tool to check for
license compliance in your organization. Please visit
http://www.microsoft.com/resources/sam/msia.mspx for more info and to
download the tool.

Thanks Sjonia. It's a shame that my auditing software won't do what the
analyser tool does, but at least by running both I can get the information I
need for all sofware.

Thanks for your help.
