    Yo,

    I've got Office 2007 on my laptop. It was there for a trial run (60 days) and so I bought Office Home & Student. Having put that on the computer, it works no problem.

    But I noticed when I brought up Outook, it is asking me for the activation key again. I've put that in there several times and no way will it accept it.

    Any ideas as to how to overcome this problem.

    I'm using Vista Home Premium on a Toshiba P200 with over 70 gigs free. Help will be appreciated. Thanks!

    From looking at Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007 in comes with Microsoft Office Excel 2007, OneNote 2007, PowerPoint 2007, Word 2007. It does not say that it has Outlook. Being your trial run is over that is why it does not work.

    Russ, I think you quite so correct. Outlook is not included in this version of Office 2007. I wonder if there's a way to uninstall that particular portion of Offfice (the Outlook part) apart from uninstalling the rest of it. Why am I thinking there is not? Thanks for your pointer.

    Did you go to Start > Control Panel > Add Remove Programs and see if Outlook is listed?

    Outlook was not recorded in the Add/Remove. Therefore, I uninstalled Office from the system. Or at least, I thought I did. Most of it was uninstalled, but to my surprise, some of it was still there, so I took Revo Uninstall and removed it completely with that. Then I reinstalled Office Home & Student and all is well.

    Thanks Russ for the efforts and help. Appreciated!

    I wanted to mark this as solved but don't know how other than saying here that the matter is solved.
