Your Company's key is most likely a VL key.and it will not work on your pirated
version. Which pirated version of Office 2007 are you preparing to install and
trying to use that key on. BTW: I cannot help you out here

One checks a pirated license key against a pirated version of Office by
attempting to install. If it doesn't work Setup will back out the install,
no harm done. ;^)

Contact your company's tech support folks for this issue.

Sometimes Earl these posts benefit others reading them especially ones that have
pirated software

No, i don't use pirated version.
My company is Microsoft partners. let say like this: For Office Ultimate
2007 i have 1 serial key for 10 Users/PC. Now i want to check if i still can
use that serial key...i don't know how many license already in use...

thanks before...

Then you will need to review the records you used to document the
installation. If a whistle blower reports you, they you will need to
prove you are in compliance with your licensing.

Yes you can. You have got what is commonly called Volume License Key
(aka VLK) and this can generally be used on up to 10 machines (in your
case) but MS hasn't got the means to check that you have not used in
more than 10 machines. As long as you can count the number of machines
you have you should be OK. No 10 is a big number and in some countries
only the Prime Ministers of the country are allowed to reside in a
property with number 10 on it. Would you be able to count up to 10? If
so go ahead and install it on any other machine you want. If you exceed
no 10 so what. You will not be executed for it. People always make
mistakes. I am sure Steve Ballmer of MS has made mistakes in his life!

Hope this helps.
