Reinstalling Office 97 on XP home edition

M

Michael Dean

I got a new system with XP installed. I want to load my office 97 Pro on my
new computer. It asks for an 11 digit product key. The product key I have
from the disk is a 21 numeric key. How can I get it to take my key like it
did on my old 98 system?

You are comparing Oranges and Plums

The 21 digit number is the product ID, not the install key

The install key is 4 digits, a space, and 7 more digits

The install key is on a sticker on the CD case, usually with a
BIG notice "do not lose this number" on the sticker
