Hi all, just a quick question, i recently purchased office 2003 pro from PC World and was just browsing the microsoft site concerning software piracy and this got me a little concerned, where is the COA for office, i have the installation key and the manual that came with it etc, but no COA, this is a full retail version, any one got any ideas. Thanks Paul

As long as Microsoft accepts the registration key, you should be fine. If in doubt, just contact Microsoft, I'm sure they'll be glad to let you know, and to find out if someone is selling pirated software. [WINK]
Typically, if you buy your software off the shelf at an office supply store, or on a new pc, you'll see more of the COA. Just b/c it's not there doesn't mean anything is wrong. But, I would just contact Microsoft to be sure, or else search around the web for any reviews on the vendor you purchased from to see if anyone else has had any problems buying pirated software from them or not.
