Office XP SBE download

[Spero]

I have a fully licenced copy of Office XP SBE but I also have a small
grandchild who thought it would be fun to draw over the CD. I have tried
everything to clean it but it scratched too badly. Is there anyway I can
download the full CD version of the software. Without the serial number it
is useless so I can not see why not and as you can download Office 2007 and
Office 2003, I am sure this is possible but I have been trying to two weeks
with no luck.

Please can someone help.

No, you can't download it. And, since it's out of mainstream support, you
may not be able to get it replaced from MS.

Nope, you will need to locate a CD elsewhere, it is LONG out of print.

As you have a fully legal key, there's nothing to stop you buying a copy
on EBay. Doesn't matter whether it's pirated or not, it's your key that
is the "qualifying" factor, not the media.

No you cannot download Office 2003, and only a trial edition of 2007, which
cannot be converted with an existing key

IIRC XP SBE is only available as an OEM version (Look on the CD for sold
with a new computer or something to that effect.) Contact the computer
manufacturer for a replacement CD (or find one from someone who has a copy
and make a copy of their CD.)
