Did you uninstall any Trial together with Activation Assistant, then reboot
prior to installing your paid for version of Office?

Upon install of Office Ultimate 2007, numerous options in Outlook are
disabled, including Outlook Options, New Message, reply, forward, etc.
When
I attempt to activate product, I don't get a "product already activated"
message, nor does it attempt to activate.

I'm pretty sure that Mr. Gates isn't having this problem on a Saturday
night, after all, we only spent $539.00 on a program we assume will
operate
properly when installed.

(BTW -CPU is running Vista Home Premium, SP2)

Any help is appreciated.
