You don't get Access with the student version. If you want to settle for the 2003 Professional you can get it for $135. http://techbargains.pricegrabber.com...ype=bottomline

You can also register & attend one of the Vista/Office 2007 launch events and get a copy of Office 2007 Pro for free. At least that's what they're doing for the one in Chicago today. IIRC there are supposed to be some additional ones held later this month.

Bumping an old thread. I've been spoiled as my former employer participated in MS HUP or Microsoft Home Use Program as I was able to purchase MS Office Pro 2007 and MS Office Pro 2010 for $9.95 and each was good for 3 PCs. Fast forward a number of years and I am with a new employer. My new employer used to participate in the HUP program but stopped before I joined them. I recently bough a new PC and am looking to get a fresh copy of MS Office Pro. I've done a little looking on line and the best I have found is MS Office Pro 2016 for about $117. It seems MS Office 365 is all the rage, but I'm not interested in spending $120 a year for the subscription and don't need 1T of cloud storage etc.
What and where have you found good deals on MS Office Pro? Anyone want to hook a fellow AZiner up with your MS HUP program??

Tell your employer to go with Office 365 and then install it on your home PC.

II wish my employer would reup the enterprise agreement for the MS HUP. We have 1,000s of employee assigned computers and they all are imaged with Office 2010 Pro. No way I see them converting to 365............

= kidding? I did not know that.

I always saw the smilie as crossing my fingers and hoping something would happen. So in your case, I read it as you're hoping a fellow AZiner would be able to hook you up with their MS HUP program.

Damn. I've been reading the smilie wrong all these years. Note to self, = kidding/joking.

You learn something new every day.

Okay - So show me the "kidding" icon/emoji.

As an aside even though it has been quite some time since I have made a HUP purchase, there were (are?) a few steps a participant needs to do to prevent just this type of illegal behavior.

i pulled out the disk I have for the 2007 Office version and it turns out its not Office Professional it's Office Enterprise.

Uuhhh does anyone have install files for Office 2010 Pro Plus? I have the key but don't have the install files. I tried to download it using that Microsoft ISO downloader but it doesn't have it. Trying not to use torrents if I don't have to

Haven't used them personally, but someone mentioned this site on YouTube for Windows 7/10 keys and they happen to have Office too. Did a quick search and some people are skeptical while others have said they had success. But since I don't have any experience I can't really speak much of them.
