Office 2003 Trail Version

[charles jackson]

I attended a Microsoft Meeting, and was given a trial version of the 2003
package, which a installed onto a department of 4 people in order to test the
feature, in consideration for a general rollout. The trial expired, but my
company - facing possible aquisition would not buy any new licenses, and
wanted me to roll the testees back to our XP licenses. The results of
rolling back are disasterous, and MS will not grant any trial version
extensions, or support. I though that MS wanted to hear feed-back about the
new product, but apparently they just wanted to sell it.

Not that this is the place for Microsoft feedback, but what was it you
and the "testees" wished to say?

The purpose of TRIALS is to tease you into buying the product.
The purpose of BETAS is to garner feedback on a product before its set in
stone.

If you wish to make suggestions, go to www.microsoft.com/mswish and let them
know what you'd like to see.

As for your botched roll-back, accidents happen. Best bet is to uninstall
Office altogether and reinstall the last good version you used.
