........to cut a long story short, the Netbook in question went back to Samsung who kindly did a 'Full Reinstall'. I think that has fixed it. Hence, everything is gone! No problem - the work was all backed up to a stick; the only thing I can't now fix easily is to reinstall Office 2003. The disc and key are long gone.
My question is, I have the same Office 03 on my trusty dell laptop. Is it possible to retrieve the key from there and to then download Office 03 from somewhere?
I guess the other 2 options are to buy Student Office 08 or 10, but there are compatibility problems with Office 03, I believe; or to use Open Office - are there any compatibility between Office 03 and Open Office - particularly in Word?
Any ideas please,
Many thanks
