The Microsoft Office 2007 System has been available for download via MSDN since November 12 and has been joined today by Windows Vista. There is however an issue with some of the Office
2007 product keys, that Seth Adams, Program Manager, MSDN Subscriptions calls an unusual situation.

"Many Office 2007 applications were recently posted to Subscriber Downloads, however a unique product key was not posted for each product. Although these product keys are worth 11 activations, once a product key is used to activate a particular Office application, it can only be used to activate additional installations of the same application. For example, a single key was posted for Office Project 2007 and Office Visio 2007, however once the product key is used to activate an Office Project 2007 installation, it can only be used to activate other Office Project 2007 installations," explained Adams.

Microsoft informed that it will enable additional product keys on November 21. Concomitantly, the released Office 2007 Desktop Programs keys will become Office SharePoint Designer 2007 keys.

"If you have already used this key to activate a different desktop program, please make a note to swap the two keys. The Project Professional 2007 / Visio Professional 2007 key will be renamed to be the key for Project Professional 2007. Again, if you already used this key to activate Visio Professional 2007, you will have to use the new Visio Professional 2007 key to activate any Project Professional 2007 installations," added Adams.
