What is the Name of the Application File?

Hi,

I have downloaded Office Standard 2007 -- even though I already own Office
Home & Student 2007 -- because I want to try out Outlook 2007.

Right after downloading the trial, Microsoft sent me an e-mail message,
stating that the first thing I should do is open up your product trial. But
how? I have looked everywhere in All Programs in the Start Menu and cannot
find where my product trial is, so I could use it! I even did several
searches with different keywords but to no avail. Help … please!

Did you look in the file where you downloaded the Office Home and Student. That is
the file that you are looking for

Did you install the downloaded trial? When you do install it make sure you
only install the Outlook part using a custom install. If you overwrite the
Word and Excel part of your original Home and Student install with the trial
you very well may not be able to use those programs when the trial ends.

Hi,

I installed the downloaded trial -- but I have a feeling it did not actually
install.

I do think I overwrote Word, Excel or PowerPoint because I checked right
after the "install" to see if I could save in the three applications -- a
task that cannot be done in a trial -- and I was able to save. (I did not
think about overwriting issues until after the "install.")

Thanks for the advice regarding the custom install. I will try that now,
since I truly think it did not install the first time.
