Thanks John - Chris's suggestion was not to run the CD, but to just
use the key off the box to put in to the existing installed software;
I imagine anyway, running the CD, might well produce a message that
there is already a version of the software installed -

Yes you can copy it no problem. Just make sure that you set windows
to show hidden files and folders. There will be files and folders on
the cd that are hidden. If you don't set windows to show them when
you try to copy the cd contents you will get a message to say there
are hidden files. As long as you've done that you can just copy and
paste the cd contents over to your flash drive.
As far as just using the key from the cd I would think that Chris's
suggestion of running the cd and letting it upgrade you from trial to
full. That way you'll be sure it's going to work. If you put the key
from your cd copy into the trial I don't know whether it'd work. It
may do, but installing from the cd may be better.
John.

John - can't I use cut and paste to copy the office CD on to a flash
drive?
If so, won't all files and folders [hidden or otherwise] get
coppied? - Andy

Andy, remember before copying the cd contents over to set windows
to show
hidden files and folders.

Yes. Just copy the entire CD and paste it into your flash drive.

Hi all -
If I buy a software cd of office 2007, can I just copy it on to a
flash drive to install on to my netbook?
