Copying the MSO cache will not populate the registry - only a full install from the setup.exe will do that.

After furious head scratching, Patrick Schmid [MVP] asked:
| I guess I hit Send prematurely.
| Copy the entire MSOCache folder to your new computer (it has a folder
| of the same name, so please make sure it is called something else).
| Then post back. I'll see in the meantime if I can't find some info on
| how to reinstall B2 from the files in that folder, as I have never
| done this myself.

|||||| No I don't have the earlier MAY B2 download, I only kept the
|||||| B2TR release since I didn't realize this scnenario was likely.
|||||| Furthermore, at the time I wasn't planning on replacing my

||||||
|||||| - Do you know If I uninstall my Office 2003 from my new laptop,
|||||| will the B2TR install? OR...
|||||| - Do you have a copy of the May B2 that you can send me, I have
|||||| my own keys which were assigned to me at the time! OR...
|||||| - ANY OTHER SOLUTION??

|||||||| I've been testing (office 2007 B2) prior to the TR release. I
|||||||| eventually (early Sept) upgraded to the TR release. I truly
|||||||| have been satisfied thus far...
||||||||
|||||||| A few days ago I purchased a new laptop, and UNFORTUNATELY
|||||||| I've been unsuccesful at migrating/installing Office 2007 B2TR
|||||||| over to the new laptop, which BTW is currently loaded with
|||||||| Office 2003. As I understand it, you can only install the B2TR
|||||||| release if you have an earlier Office 2007 B2 version already
|||||||| installed. IS THIS CORRECT?? If so this is not the case on my
|||||||| new computer. WHAT ARE MY OPTIONS IN ORDER TO GET OFFICE 2007
|||||||| RUNNING ON MY NEW LAPTOP.
||||||||
|||||||| Thanks in advance,
