When I went to a web site today it said I needed Excel Viewer to view the web
site, the web site had a free downlaod for Excel Viewer for those who did not
have it. I tried to open the web site read page and it prompted me to
download the excel viewer, so, I clicked on the install. However it took me
to a page where it wanted 25 case numbers, saying it can be found on my CD
case. However I do not have the numbers. I went around another way - through
Microsoft and downloaded the E.V. after downloading it Microsoft informed me
that it was now installed. I went back to the web site and tried to re-open
the page to read it and it said I needed to install the E.V sooooo, I pressed
install and it again prompted me to put in the 25 numbers. I am confused. Is
there a problem with my PC?

Excel Viewer does not come with a product key.

It is a free add-in supplied by Microsoft so those without Excel installed can
open and print Excel files.

Sounds like you are trying to install Excel or MS Office suite from a CD.

Explain in more detail what you are attempting to do.

Product keys cannot be found on a website.
