Licence Version for Office 2007 from Launch Event

[Arthur]

The licence file comprises three separate licences (FPP, OEM, MLK). The
licence
version that applays to you should be printed on the serial code labal.
Unfortunatelly, it's not. Is there any other way to find out what licence
version applies to the product? Since you can buy and download FPP without a
retail box, I'm not sure if it's FPP or MLK.

Hi Arthur,

I'm not quite sure I'm following you. The download product is the 60 day trial and the Launch event code converts a trial edition
(which could also be an OEM one that ships with a new PC I suppose) to a licensed product.

You download the trial, entered the code from the Launch event. Now you
open, let's say, MS Word and go to Help -> About. There is a link which
reads View End-User License Agreement. Open it, and you have a window with
the licese agreement. The problem is that it comprises three types of
licenses (FPP, OEM, MLK). You should know which one applies to you. On
Microsoft's web page, I learned that you can find out what type of licence
you have from the label with the product key (they have a nice tutorial on
that), or if you purchased on-line, it should be (if I remember it correctly)

This is what I'm talking about in my previous post.

"MICROSOFT SOFTWARE LICENSE TERMS 2007 MICROSOFT OFFICE SYSTEM DESKTOP
APPLICATION SOFTWARE Below are three separate sets of License Terms. Only one
set applies to you. To determine which License Terms apply to you check the
license designation printed either on your product key, near the product name
on your Certificate of Authenticity, or on the download page if you obtained
your product key online. If your designation is FPP, then the Retail License
Terms below apply to you. If your designation is OEM, then the OEM License
Terms below apply to you. If your designation is MLK, then the Media-less
License Kit Terms below apply to you. If you need assistance finding your

Hi Arthur,

The Office 2007 complimentary Launch Kit product keys are NFR (not for resale) Full Package Product (FPP) with no CD provided

Thanks Bob. That's what I was asking about. The beauty of FPP is that "You
may install another copy on a portable device for use by the single primary
user of the licensed device."
