Can I transfer MS Office to another pc?

austin

I have two Desktop pc's. the older one has Microsoft office 2003 and the newer one doesnt have any office software.
I want to transfer the MS Office from the older pc to the newer one but im not sure how to go about it.
I cant seem to find the oem code for it as it was pre-installed when i bought it.

any suggestions? cheers.

If it was pre-installed and you dont have the original disk then you have problems and it will be all but impossible simply to tranfer it.

If you want a very good version of office for free do a google for openoffice . Its just as good and very very similar.

You can't transfer the OEM version.
Original Equipment Manufacturer - the license is only for the machine the software was bundled with.
As said above OpenOffice v3 is recently out and very good or you could buy Office 2007 for about £80-100.

If you are registered with a university then you can get Office 2007 Ultimate for under £39 froim theultimatesteal.co.uk, if you've got a student or school pupil in your household you can get Office 2007 pro from about £47 from software4students. If you've got an NHS email address you can get Office 2007 for something like £27 or may be less (can't remember).

I thought it might have been much less than what I said. £18.
