Academic License key on OEM install?

[Alex Monaghan]

I have a customer with an academic license key, but no CD. I have the OEM
Office 2007 Preinstall kit, however can't get it to accept the license key.
Do I have to have an academic CD in order to apply an academic license key?

I have another customer with an academic license, however this was a full
product pack rather than a license only purchase, would the CD from his
package work with the volume license key?

I have tried the OEM web site, however despite completing the necessary
changes on the partner site, it won't give me access

Thanks in advance.

Yes - the product key only works for that specific product version. No clue
if using that other version will work. Why doesn't your client have his CD?

They have ordered additional licenses and got a 2007 key this time, previous
versions were 2003 and they didn't order new media.

Will have to get them to order a CD, I was trying to get their new PC's up
and running without the delay of getting the CD delivered.

Thanks
