Product Key is not working for Office Trial

[JillieBean685]

I never got a Works CD. Do you have any other suggestions?

From what I have been told, the product key for the trial version of Office
is on a sticker on the Works CD. Assuming you got that?

Ok, so how do I go about obtaining a Product Key for Office?

The reason that number doesn't work - and never will - is because that is
your product key for Windows, not Office.

I'm sure you've all seen many questions pertaining to this issue,
however,
I
didn't really find a direct answer to any of the questions I viewed.

I'm attempting to activate my Trial of Office, and the installation
process
goes well. The problem arises when I open any of the Office Products.
For
instance, I was opening Powerpoint, and was promptly asked for my
Product
Key. I located the key on the bottom of my computer on the Certificate
of
Authenticity, but when I typed it in (and I did triple check the
letter-number combinations) a dialog box appears saying that it is an
"invalid product key." Is there any specific reason why the product
key
on
my computer isn't working?

I received no CDs with my computer (other than system recovery CDs), so
I
have no other way of locating the Product Key in what came with my
computer.
Unless it's hidden somwhere that I haven't looked yet. Please help!

Call your computer manufacturer and ask them where it is.
