Installing Office after doing recovery process on PC

J

Had to do a recovery procedure on my home PC which originally came with a
60-day trial of Office 2003 and was upgraded with a purchased Standard
Edition 2003. Obviously need to re-install Office but when I put the product
key in it asks for a version of Office 97, 2000 or XP to upgrade. I don't
have this and am happy to re-install 2003. Can anyone help me with what I
need to do?

A trial version is not a qualifying version for an upgrade, you must have
had a qualifying version on your PC origonally, eg Works?
You need to find your qualifying version cd, then swap the cd's when the
upgrade complains, once verified, re swap and continue with the installation

PS You have to uninstall any trial version first
