I am switching from a desktop to laptop and want to transfer my office suite
to the laptop. Unfortunately, I can't find my installation cd. I do have the
product ID number. Is it possible to download the program onlne to my laptop
using the product ID from the desktop?

No, there is no download for Office X.

The Product ID is given during the Setup Assistant process. The Product ID
will look like this: 11111-130-0001111-12345). It is used to register your
product for technical support which you are long past.

The Product Key also called CD Key is on a yellow or bright orange sticker
on the CD package. This is used to install Office.

If you don't need Exchange you can get Office 2008 very reasonably. $108.99

If you need Exchange support, I suggest getting the Special Media edition.
It's actually cheaper right now than the standard. If you try to get the
upgrade edition it will require you to put in the old CD that you no longer
have or have Office X installed.

Standard $252. Special Media edition $208.

Hope this helps!

After creating and saving a chart (a line graph) within a word document , I
cannot get back to the data to update the chart! Double clicking on the
chart only opens windows to modify the look, not the data. Advice please!

Your message has absolutely nothing to do with the subject of this thread,
so it should not have been posted as a REPLY.

Additionally, nobody can offer any suggestions without knowing what exact
version of Office & OS X you're using as well as what method you used to
create the chart - there are several possibilities.

Please post a NEW MESSAGE stating all the necessary particulars. I'm sure
someone will be more than glad to help.

Hi,

Right click on the border of the chart. From the pop-up menu choose Edit
in Excel.
