Product Key does not work Office Home and Student 2007

I purchased a copy of Office Home and Student from a retailer and tried
several times to type in the Product Key, which I located inside the case on
an orange sticker that says "Product Key".

The error message says The key is incorrect. Verify that you have the
correct key, and then retype it.

I retyped it several times, continued with the installation without it, and
then reattempmted to enter it afterwards several times.

Make sure that you have the "B" and "8" and "O" (capital o") and "0"
(zero) and the rest correct.

Genius! My "8" was really a "B".

Boy, do I feel stupid! But you saved my butt, and I am SO grateful. My 8 was
a b.

You are not the first and won't be the last to make that mistake. They need
to use a different font.
