Hello,
My question is, I have Office 2003 Pro (I purchased retail) on my old
desktop that runs XP Home OS.
Can I transfer the entire Office 2003 program to my new laptop that runs
Media Center OS. Thank you, Jock Sales

Yes, insert your office CD and install it.

I cant post a new question since there is no pane to put it in. How can I
replace 2007 XP Office with 2003 XP Office?

MSFT Customer Support NOW says that IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO REPLACE OFFICE 2007
WITH 2003. Are they in error? 2007 is so bad I dont trust them. Have you
actually done it with no ill effects?

Hi Don,

As with car models, Microsoft stops producing and selling older models when a new model comes out. Office 2007 editions are the
current model which has been out for over a year now :)

If you have already have an Office 2003 product CD you should be able to uninstall Office 2007 and reinstall Office 2003. If you
need to purchase Office 2003, you may need to search on the web or at local retailers.

How can I post a new question. I can get the reply page to come out for me to
type in, but cant get a page to post a new question.

I have a CD with Office 2003 but I am afraid to uninstall 2007 (horrible
program spell checks only in French and takes 5X as many clicks to do what
you want) for fear of corrupting my excel, word, and other data folders.

That is the exact reason to make backups. (Which you should do anyway!)
