OK everybody, success! Special thanks to Patrick Schmid for referring us to
ms knowledgebase article 925098 posted 10/3/06. I used method 2 to delete the
DigitalProductID and ProductID keys from the registry, then opened Excel
2007, was prompted for a registration key, entered the key in method 1 of the
article and IT WORKED!. I next tried to activate and it reported "already
registered" Thanks Patrick. (ps. Careful with the registry. Create a restore
point before doing this)

So sorry about the blank post. I got so excited to see that someone had
actually managed to activate that I didn't see that this was where my query
was to go.
Did you do anything in particular to get activation, Graham? Perpetual
clicking? Incantations?
Thanks,
Kelly
Still desperate to activate, as my remaining number of attempts fritter
away....
