Hi Noel
A couple of dayys after I re-installed my whole system (including Office 2010) on a new hard disk, I saw a popup message in the lower right corner of my screen (next to the system tray) telling me that was an issue with my Office 2010 not being genuine.
But that message went away, not leaving me enough time to actually read it completely.
I went to the "Genuine Microsoft Software"
http://www.microsoft.com/genuine/default.aspx?displaylang=en
and I tested both Windows 7 and Office 2010.
Windows 7 came out OK
But the test with Office 2010 resulted in the following:
-----------------------------------------------------------
Problem: No Office products eligible for validation were found on this computer. This may be due to one of the following:
- The version of Office installed on this computer is earlier than Office XP or later than Office 2007, and is therefore not eligible for validation.
- There are currently no Office applications installed on this computer.
- The version of Office you are using is hosted on another computer or a terminal server. Read more about this in the
FAQ.
Solution: Purchase genuine Microsoft Office with a new computer, or from a retailer or software reseller near you.

All my Office 2010 programs (Excel, OneNote, PowerPoint, Word) tell me that they are activated when I check this via File/Help in each of them.
I just want to make sure that I am OK and that I will not run into troubles after a while (more messages, reduced functionality, or worse).
Thanks in advance for your help.
