I tried to post my message a few minutes ago and immediately after I clicked
on "Post" I had to sign in and then my subject came up again -- with the
mesage block blank. So hope I am not posting twice, but will start all over
again.

I am able to access the Office Online Web site in all of my programs with
the exception of Excel. I searched the knowledge base and located Article
907437 which is an exact descriptioin of my problem - "You receive an "Unable
to open <URL message when you try to access the Office Online Web site in an
Office 2003 program - cannot locate the Internet server or proxy server"

I followed the instructions provided in Resolution and modified the Registry
Editor, following item 5 since the OfficeOnTheWeb registry value was not
present. After adding it, I restarted my computer. However, nothing
changed. I would like to uninstall/reinstall Office to see if that will solve
the problem. However, am afraid to do so because I purchased my version of
Office 3.0 under Microsoft's Home Use Program. It is a legitimate, registered
version, my concern is violating the stipulation which states that it can
only be installed and used on one computer. I don't want risk losing the
entire Office 2003 suite.

I also need to find out whether I could remove Office 2003 from my present
PC and reinstall on a new one which I plan to purchase one of these days.
Have been unsuccessful in locating any FAQs for software purchased under this
program.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
