Hello,

I have users in my office that use Open Office, and MS office 2000. we purchased a new system with Office 2007, and users don't like it.

I want to move from Office 2000 as MS will no longer support it as of July, some of my users can not use OO, they must use MS office, and I have office 2003 licensed quite a while ago.

The problem I noticed with office 2003 --- after the install is complete, you open any of the applications - word, excel, you are prompted to register ---- via the internet or call in.

I want to deploy to the users that need MS office via GP software install, but I don't want users to be prompted to register when they open the software.

Any way I can suppress the users from being prompted for any registration when they open the software after the install ?


Thanks,
Bob

That doesn't really have anything to do with the fact that you're using
GP to install it. You're most likely not using the correct combination
of media and Volume License Key (VLK). If your company is a volume
license customer and you're using the VLK assigned to you, the
activation process should be automatically bypassed.
