EULA pops up every time

[Uncle Rob]

EULA comes up each time I open apps. in newly installed Office suite.

I dusted off the Office 2003 cd that came with my pc and installed it today.
When I bring up Powerpoint, I have to accept the EULA every time. Same with
Word.

Why? Is this standard, or a glitch?

If it is a glitch, how do I resolve it? I have not restarted the machine
since I installed it. Is that a factor?

Thanks

If you have Windows XP, then log in to Windows as Administrator, start
an Office program, accept the EULA, close the Office program, log out of
Windows as Administrator, and log back in to Windows using your normal
user profile.

If you have Windows Vista, then right-click on an Office program
shortcut, choose to run the Office program as Administrator, accept the
EULA, close the Office program, and then start the Office program normally.

If the previous suggestion doesn't help, then see
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=884202 "You must accept the Office
End User License Agreement every time that you start an Office program".

thanks, very helpful. i am kind of roadkill on the info superhighway though,
and need a more concrete walk through. like do you mean, any program out of
the Office pak, like Powerpoint?

i also wonder where all my old emails are now too, since Outlook 2003 has
taken over my computer....i will post that in a minute
thanks

Yes, any Office app will suffice. The EULA covers them all.
