Share office applications server

Hello my name is Carlos and here is my question:

I know it can be done but I dont know how to do it. Since many users work
with MS Office XP, but we dont have many licenses. So if a new users comes
in, he/she cannot install Office XP because we dont have any license left.

We run windows 2000 server and I thikn there is a way to buy a "main
license" and then the users will be using that license from the server. They
dont have to run their own license and any office application would be
installed on the server not in thier computers.

I'm not sure if it works like that, but I know Microsoft has something
similar to this. Thank you.

Hi D.K.,

MS does have volume licensing programs (http://microsoft.com/licensing) but MS Office is licensed on a 'per seat' basis and not on a
'concurrent user' model, but you may want to contact one of the MS licensing specialists through the link above for details on what
is available.
