Re: How best to move office to new computer without violating license?

Hi Carl,

For the most part the launch event method was to download the trial edition and install it, then use the launch event provided
product key to convert the trial to a full copy. You can certainly download a trial edition from http://trymicrosoftoffice.com (if
you don't have the prior download saved to a CD) to install but if you no longer have the provided installation key you'd probably
need to purchase a license or a retail package.

Office 2007 generally needs to be installed via it's own Setup.exe to function properly.

Hello, I have a similar question and need some help. I got the full
version of Office 2007 at the recent rollout. I downloaded it and
loaded it on my desktop. I now find that I need a laptop for work and
would like to install it there instead. I have NO disk, and do not
have the cardboard sleeve with the passwords on it. Is there a way I
can simply move Office or do I have to download and re-install. And if it's the latter, how do I make it a legal version.

Thanks
