how to backup a copy of office 2007 ?

[Brian]

I downloaded office 2007 professional only with a digital lock number.
But now I want to make a backup copy using windows XP.
How to do it?
Tks.

Find the install directory or the install file. There should be a program
named Setup.exe at the root of the directory. Burn the whole thing to DVD
(It may fit on a CD?). Put a file on the DVD with the Product Key, so you
don't use it. It is important to use exact terminology in these groups. I
don't believe that "digital lock number" is a term that Microsoft uses for
Product Key, or one that everyone would immediately recognize.

If you don't have a CD/DVD burner just buy the CD from Microsoft.

creating a text file and
saving it to the cd root
directory is helpful.

the text file can be
called productkey.txt

also, writing the
product key with a
sharpee on the cd
is double insurance.
