Is the trial version of Microsoft Office Standard 2003 still avail

[Chelsey Doyle]

I have start classes at a Community College taking Word, Excel and Outlook
and I have been told by my instructor that there is a 60 day trial version of
Office Standard 2003 available online. They have the application on the
school computers, but I need to do most of my school work at home due my
mother having brain cancer. Please could you help me and point me in the
right direction as to where the download is. I have seach all over microsoft
websites but only see the 2007 version. I have very limit money right now and
can't afford the buy this application at this time. Thank you very much,

Sincerely

No, 2007 is what's available now. Your instructor's information is about two
months out of date.

Well you can use the trial of 2007 and just select save as "word 97-2003
option so the file is saved in a format that can be read by earlier versions
of Office. Also you might, since its a cost issue look into getting the
Student Version of Office 2007. Its a lot cheaper. I think I paid under $100
for my copy and your allowed to install it on 3 systems. The only thing is
you don't get Outlook with that version.

There is a major difference bwt office 2003 and 2007 so if someone is taking
classes in Office 2003 applications then installing 2007 is not a good idea.

I would ask the instructor if they have the trial version available for use
or if a way to access the schools server remotely could be setup for you
under the circumstances at home. Another thought would be to see if you have
a neighor or friend with a laptop that has 2003 or lower installed that you
could borrow while you are taking the classes. Maybe the school has loaner
laptops.
