After Installing a new Hard Drive and re-installing Office Basic 2003, all
Office programs reuire me to accept the User Agreement each time I start each
program. They are all activated and run perfectly after I accept the
agreement. But they reuire that blasted window be accepted each time
Outlook, Word, or Excel is loaded. Any ideas? I'd appreciate any help in
resiolveing this. Thanks.

If you have Windows XP, then log in to Windows as Administrator, start
an Office program, accept the EULA, close the Office program, log out of
Windows as Administrator, and log back in to Windows using your normal
user profile.

If you have Windows Vista, then right-click on an Office program
shortcut, choose to run the Office program as Administrator, accept the
EULA, close the Office program, and then start the Office program normally.

If the previous suggestion doesn't help, then see
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=884202 "You must accept the Office
End User License Agreement every time that you start an Office program".
