  I have purchased Office 2007 which I understand allows installation onto 2 PC's. I have installed from the CD on to a laptop and now want to install on to my new netbook. This has no CD/DVD player however, so I need to download the program - how can I access a download without having to re-purchase ?

  
  

  My stock answer to this question that has only been posted on newsgroups and forums about a million times:

   

  One of 4 methods may work for you:

   

  1.  Go to www.microsoft.com\office\downloads and if one of your unidentified versions of Office is listed there then download and install, use your activation key.

   

  2.  Go to a computer that has a CD/DVD drive and copy all the files on the CD/DVD to a USB external drive of some form (hard disk or flash drive) and then use that media to install using a USB port on your computer.

   

  3.  Go to a computer that has a CD/DVD drive and share that computer's drive across the network to your net book laptop and install across the network.

   

  4.  Purchase an external USB CD/DVD drive for the installation of this program and future use.  They are reasonably inexpensive and the future use part is the really important part of having one.
