Default Where are office iso's?

Hi All,

I need the iso to M$ Office 2010 Professional.

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/soft...e#pk-input-key

Does not like the customer's key. I have a scheduled call back from
M$ support, but they are rarely of any help.

:'(

If memory serves me, there is a place to download whatever iso you
want, but I can't find it.


Many thanks,
-T

I think Paul pointed us at Heidoc.net, If my aging memory cells still
hold true.

Some versions of this have contained a coin miner.
The software will prompt you when it's about to
start the coin miner (if one is present).

Do your download request, use the "copy to buffer"
function, and do the actual download in a browser.
This will reduce the time that the tool is open on
your desktop.

https://www.heidoc.net/joomla/techno...-download-tool

The reason for the "hefty" operating requirements,
of .NET and IExx , is because it fiddles with some
ActiveX or whatever, to fool Techbench into generating
a URL.

Note that Microsoft broke the Win7 download on that
thing, and the author of it supports a "reduced rate"
URL generation function today. To generate a URL now for
Win7 takes time. It's not clear when other download
products will suffer the same fate.

NirSoft tells me:

Product Name : Microsoft Office Professional 2010
Product ID : 82503-131-1871605-27410

The closest I could get from heidoc was

Office_Pro_2010_TechG_English_x64.exe

I wonder if the TechG will work with their 2010 key?

M$ Tech support looked up her key. It turns out it was a trial key.
Bad dog! Bad dog! Bad dog!

I will sell her a new version.

At this point, you should check how enamored the customer is with
Microsoft Office. They may be willing to learn a new office suite,
especially if it is free (e.g., LibreOffice, FreeOffice) or a lot
cheaper (Softmaker, author of FreeOffice, has their Office suite). No
idea if your customer has a trial version of MS Office that includes
Outlook. If so, there are free alternatives (e.g., Thunderbird) or
cheaper alternatives (e.g., EssentialPIM, eM Client - both have crippled
free versions which might be sufficient to your customer).

Seems there is an opportunity to introduce alternatives. If the
customer is a SOHO or personal user, they might like not having to pay
$200 to $300 for MS Office 2016). If they still want MS Office, maybe
going with the Office 365 subscription would be preferred since the cost
would be yearly but smaller. In fact, you can find eBay sellers that
have subscription cards for a lot cheaper than buying direct from
Microsoft. I paid $33 apiece for three 1-year subscriptions (which
aggregate when activated, so I got a 3-year subscription) instead of the
$99/year that Microsoft wants to charge.

Tuesday, I show them how to use Libre Office, which I have
already installed.

This all depends on the attitude of the user(s). "I CAN'T LEARN
ANYTHING NEW !!!!" gets them back on M$O. Some folks will
only accept 100% identical to M$O. So I get to sell then
a copy.

I have had a few secretaries almost get violent with me
over Open Office and then Libre Office. Open Office did
suck. But Libre Office is fairly decent, except for envelope
printing.

Most just say "I am having too hard a time adjusting to
Libre Office, just order me out the real one." And
I do.

I would try it, but I have user-defined functions and other VBA
macros in workbooks that I use every day, and my understanding is
that it doesn't support VBA.

Hi Stan,

What I have been doing of late is to place what I want into
the clipboard, punch an icon to a Perl 6 program of my own
writing, read the clipboard, manipulate the data to my liking,
place back on the clipboard, then paste the data back
where I want it.

Do this and you will be as weird as me!

:-)

I also mentioned Softmaker's Office suite which has the look and feel of
MS Office. They have their FreeOffice version if the user doesn't want
to pay anything or to use as a starter version. If the user really
needs a non-MS office product that looks even more similar, there's
Kingsoft's WPS Office suite that has free and paid versions. I used to
recommend Kingsoft because it had skins that made it look very like
Microsoft's Office; however, I stopped recommended it after they got
greedy by turning their free version into adwa watermarking the print
output, many features got disabled after 30-days (without them warning
it was a trialware version (many reviews were glowing because the
authors published before the 30day trial had expired). That was back in
Mar 2017, so they may have improved their behavior since then.

If you push the features of MS Word into your documents, none of the
non-Microsoft office suites will provide 100% fidelity. VBA (Visual
Basic for Applications) is proprietary to Microsoft (a variant of
Microsoft's Visual Basic) and why you find VBA only in Microsoft
products because it uses OLE automation (aka ActiveX). Back when I
trialed OpenOffice (and LibreOffice was just released), I found creating
and editing tables easier in MS Word versus OpenOffice that had some
table features rather obtusely buried.

Some others that I looked at but never trialed are ThinkFree Office,
Ability Office, and Polaris Office. Then there is Corel's WordPerfect,
the old rival of Microsoft Office, but not as cheap as the other
alternatives. If the user has an always-on Internet connection, there's
Google Docs or Microsoft's OneDrive (to get at office.live.com). I have
not used either of those. When not at home or work, I have the MS
Office apps on my Android smartphone - and it's all free.

+1 on Softmaker's Office free (and pay) version.
