Can you be more specific about what you are trying to do.
Please note the use of Beta versions of Windows XP is not allowed as the
right to use them expired when we made the final product available (October
2001)

actually this is the xp pro product shipped with the
office 2003 beta software. after installing it and liking
it, we, at our church, bought the licenses with sa from
an authorized re-seller and want to change the license
keys so that the software won't expire in 120 days for xp
pro and november 2003 for office 2003 beta. is there an
applet to change the license keys without doing a
registry hack?

I don't see how you can have purchased licences for software (Office 2003)
that won't be released until the end of October at the earliest. You cannot
possibly have purchased retail licences for 2003, it's still in Beta. May I
ask where you purchased these retail 2003 licences from?

As for Windows, you would need to reinstall from scratch.

actually your info is wrong. xp pro with the software
assurance is available now, server 2003 with the cals is
available now and the only product waiting for the 2003
release in late august or early sept is office 2003. goto
any microsoft uathorized reseller and they will tell you
the same thing. microdoft has a list on their products
web page for the authorized resellers. also, if you goto
the kb there is a way to hack the reg and change the
license key. i was just hoping that some knew of an
applet that was already written to accomplish the same
thing.
 
also if you purchase office zxp pro now with the software
assurance, when office 2003 comes out, it is covered in
you license agreement. so in essence, you can purchase
office 2003 licensing now.
