Unable to access the Office Online Web site in Office 2003, Excel
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. |

Unable to access the Office Online Web site in Office 2003, Excel
If you bought Office you can install it as many times you want on the same
computer, however reinstalling Office almost certainly not help you anyway. I have everything excel/online turned off on my computers because I find it annoying and help takes forever to use. Probably better to post here and wait if someone else use the same and knows something about it. Don't uninstall office, unless you go into the registry and delete every little string referncing office the settings are saved and reinstalling won't make any difference.
