Activation problem 2003 and 2007 in same laptop

[Juha]

Hi

Our client is a teacher and she needs both the OEM Office SBE 2003 Fin and
Office SBE 2007 Fin in same XP Pro Fin laptop. First I installed 2007 and
after several months 2003. I suppose that I made full install both times and
activated product via startin Word and let activation process go throw.

Now she says that under Office tools (there is only one version of Office
Tools) the the MS Office Pictture Manager is running as a limited version
(can't modify pictures) claiming that the trial period is over. We are unable
to activate PicManager. I suppose that the rest of both Offices are
activated. How can we activate Pic Managert?

Thanks in advantage,

A message that the trial has expired can be an indication that a trial
edition was prinstalled and it wasnt removed prior to installing the full
version.

The MS advice, with multiple versions, is to install earliest version first,
update, then custom install later version in order that it doesnt remove the
earlier version.
You may want to amend/rename shortcuts on installing the first version in
order that the later doesnt overwite them.
Not an answer I know; just general info.
