Trial expiration

Someone else downloaded it and when I tried to determine how long it would
work I saw on the web site "try it for approximately 90 days"

And there's no way to ask that person? I've never heard of a way to
determine this but it's very possible that I'm wrong. My suggestion would be
to buy the edition of Office that meets your needs **now**. Murphy's Law
says that it will expire when you need it most.

Check the .exe file for the date it shows in Windows Explorer.

Some else downloaded the trial and when I tried to find out how to tell when
it expired I saw "the trial is valid approximately 60 days from the date of
activation" The approximately makes me want to see the counter. But when I
do Activate Prodcut on the Help menu, I get "The product is already
activated"

Suppose you may look at the Office Folder creation date for an
approximate date, or properties of the Office shortcuts. Add 2 months
and that would likely be the end.
