Install Microsoft office 2004

[Ree]

I threw away my CD for my Microsoft office 2004 when my notebook broke not thinking that I could use it again. I recently bought a new Mac, but it only came with a trial version. I still have the key because I wrote it on a notebook. Is there anything I can do to reuse the Microsoft office or should I just buy a new one?

You need "A" CD, not necessarily 'that' CD.

So any Microsoft Office 2004 CD will work with the key you purchased.

You MUST remove the Test Drive during or before installing the "real" one,
or the real one won't work properly.

Don't forget to re-apply all the updates as soon as you get it installed.

Cheers
