Microsoft Works 2003 Validation questioned. I have the invoice from HP showing the purchase. The registration number referred to in the validation notice is not the same as the number shown on my Excel and Word.
I've tried the steps outlined in the web site. I get to the last step in the validation procedure and get the message
"Failed Validation Self-help ActiveX loaded"
I'll be glad to send you diagnosic test results if you'll tell me how to get them.

Excel and Word are NOT part of Works - they are part of Office, which is a whole different ball-game
When complete, click on the Copy button, and paste into your response.
(If there's an error, try the copy/paste routine anyway - it frequently still works)..
WRT your error message - this sort of error frequently occurs from over-zealous Anti-Virus or Firewall, or the security settings in IE being very high. First check that IE is running at default settings for all zones, in Internet Properties. Then check
that your AV and Firewall are allowing ActiveX to function properly.
