When I try to add the CDC to a form, Access returns a message that I
don't have a license to use it. Is this typical of Office Professional
2003? What do I need to do to get the license?

As far as I can remember you need Visual Basic, Visual Studio, or the
"developer" tools for your version of Office. But this control is
notorious for versioning problems, and life is simpler in the long run
if you ignore it and work directly with the corresponding Windows API
functions (as in e.g. http://www.mvps.org/access/api/api0001.htm)
