Thanks for the help, but here's the deal: I'm really not
hallucinating. It's an Office 2000 Premium case, with Office 2000
Premium disks,all of which I bought new in 2000 and have kept
together. On the back of the case is a yellow label that says "CD
KEY" and reports a 10-digit number. The printing on the card inside
the CD case, below the sticker, reads "Don't lose this number." There
is also a "CD SET" number on a white sticker above the yellow one.

Sorry, but you are! ;o) The installation key for Office 2000 was a
25-character alphanumeric key - Office 97 was the last version to have a
ten-digit key. So you're either not installing Office 2000 (but 97) or you
have the wrong case - it's as simple as that. I'm right you, my friend, are
100% *WRONG*. Don't believe me? Ring Microsoft and *ASK*.

And in fact, I have used exactly that number to install this software
several times as I have upgraded my PC over the years.

Sorry, but you have *NOT*! - that's 100% *IMPOSSIBLE*. You are not using the
correct key, end of story.

The only
difference now is this: I installed the Office 2003 Preview Pack. (I
had to do so for a bookk I wrote about Frontpage 2003.) In doing so,
I selected the option to preserve my old versions underneath, but no
matter; the preview pack wiped them out, and now Office 2000 won't
re-install.

Nothing whatsoever to do with it - you're using the wrong key, full stop.
Maybe I need to spell that out to you....
Am I paranoid if I think this is a way to force an upgrade? Perhaps,
but it wouldn't be out of character.


Yes it would. Let me spell this out to you in words of one syllable YOU ARE
U-SING THE WRONG KEY. Got that? No? Let me try again - YOU ARE USING THE
WRONG KEY!! Oh and YOU ARE PARANOID! You need a shrink.

Has that penetrated? Probably not, but no one can say I didn't try...

Perhaps you misread the tone of my previous reply. You may want to re-read
it, and observe that nowhere in it was I critical of you. I have what I have.
Stranger things have happened.

I'll drop out now. But in line with "needing a shrink" look at the cruelty
and venom in your reply. Nothing I wrote reasonably provoked such a hateful
response. You may want to explore why you have so much rage that you need to
spill it all over people who have done nothing to hurt you.

Thanks anyway (honestly) for trying to solve my problem.

I misread nothing - you were the one insisting that you installed Office
with a 10 character key! You're delusional. But, like I said, there's help
you can get for that...

OK, I apologise if I came across a little strong, but you're delusional.
