Home use program license key
in [Microsoft Office]
|
From: BdbNorfolk on 2 Aug 2008 09:21 I'm in the military, Navy active duty. I'm aware that we qualify for the Home Use Program through our Volume Licensing. I've not been able to find the specific resource I need to obtain this software. If anyone has any real information that would be great. Microsoft's help center says "Contact your agencys software licensing manager" and other vague hints. If I worked in say and office of 30 people I could get my mind around that. But to say "Contact the Navy's software licensing manager" doesn't help us front line guys. We need a real answer with a real resource. Any help would be wonderful, I wouldn't be posting here if I hadn't already run the route of my Chain of Command and several weeks of searching the net / navy admins.

From: BdbNorfolk on 2 Aug 2008 09:39 Thank you Carey for your quick response. I have searched the knowledge base and the Microsoft help links you offer already. They point to a "Email" you recieve, in the military this is simply not true. Due to deployment schedules and new member influx / turnover etc... this is just not always true. In the past I was able to obtain this software under the home use program, so I know it's there. However this was while onboard a ship with a limited crew. Currently stationed on a shore instalation with well over thirty thousand people and dozens & dozens of different commands our "Agency's software manager" isn't someone I can point a finger at. It's my hope that someone has heard & answered this question before. Again, the generic information on the microsoft sites is of no help and they do not respond to any inquiries as to the agency / office / person / authority to contact.

This article actually details the plan purchased by the Navy and lists the sailor use cost as under 25$. http://newsroom.cdwg.com/news-releases/news-release-06-13-05.html Still looking : ) "Carey Frisch [MVP]" wrote: > Apparently, CDW has a contract to administer this program. > Give them a call at 1.800.863.4239 > > Also see: http://www.cdwg.com/shop/search/results.aspx?wclss=F25&pCurrent=1&Brand=MIC > > -- > Carey Frisch > Microsoft MVP > Windows Desktop Experience - > Windows Vista Enthusiast > > --------------------------------------------------------------- > > "BdbNorfolk" <BdbNorfolk(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:FAB7CC1E-5EFF-49BE-9293-0A3BBBAEAD91(a)microsoft.com... > Thank you Carey for your quick response.
