it is up and running,
it asked if I wanted to Validate it ONLINE when I brought up Excel,
told it NO.

then I had to CANCEL the option.

and it is running just fine,
I am in Win10 right now.

AZgl1500, thank you for the time and effort it took for you to post that in-depth how-to. I really appreciate it, and I'll bookmark this in case I need to install it in the future. I used an "alternative" means to activate the software, as alluded to in my previous post, but it's always good to know there are legitimate ways for those of us who paid for the damn thing. My question is - isn't there like a 30 day time limit on not activating this software?

Why?
He's at least one of the few honest blokes that admit to using Windows (or spell Microsoft with a dollar sign, or proclaim they "almost never boot into Win 10"...)
