I have a disk for the above and want to put it on my wifes netbook which doesn't have a cd drive,how do i install it with the key code.

Figment

Assuming you have another PC/laptop with working CD/DVD drive and both are on the same LAN, you can share the CD/DVD drive across the network. Alternately, create an ISO image of the disk using something like IMGBurn, then move this image to the netbook over the network

Thanks for the advice but it needs to be simple for a simple person,sorry.

Another way would be to get a USB CD/DVD drive and connect it to the netbook.

Have you checked whether the netbook meets the minimum specification for Office 2007?

System

Copy thre contents of the CD onto a USB stick and use that to install on the netbook

You don't need to faff about making ISO images or buying a USB CD drive

That's the easiest way. Run 'setup' from the external disk.

I tried this but could not find the product to download and add my product key.

The product key is "added" during the install process.

Just do as said before ... COPY the DVD contents to a USB memory stick (using a computer that has a DVD drive), plug the stick into the Netbook, open the stick in Explorer on the Netbook, double-click on setup.exe.
