How do I open my free trial of MS Publisher download?

[Mary]

I've just downloaded a 60 day free trial of Microsoft Office Publisher 2007,
which was apparently successful. But each time I go to open it a message
pops up saying that another application has to be launched...but when I click
on "lauch application" it doesn't do anything. Also, in the email they sent
me after successfully registering and downloading, it tells me 'how to get
started'....open up trial download, enter in the product key where indicated
and get started......but I haven't quite figured out where to do that. Any
help?

What application is it telling you to launch?

 

[Mary]

Well, when I click on the icon on the desktop, it says that there is no
default application specified to open the document......Also, in the email
they sent me it says: Get Started; thank you for registering for a free 60
day Microsoft Office trial. To activate your trial, follow the instructions
below: Here is your product key: Microsoft Office Publisher 2007
TWVX8-PBYKB-B6CMT-26VT7-RXQ6J
*Open up your product trial.
*Enter the trial key when prompted.
*Start your trial
*The sooner you start, the more time you have to enjoy the trial.

------------------
But that's all it says.....I can't figure out where to do all that>>>????

Uh...did you actually install the Publisher 2007 program after you
downloaded it?
After you install it, reboot your machine, then start Publisher and you'll
be prompted to enter your key code.

It may not work at all now. Never, never, never post your product key.
