Office 2003 EULA in Vista HP

[Guest]

I have just installed Office 2003 SBE on Vista Home Premium.
I have activated the product OK.
When I run a program I am asked to accept the EULA, which I am used to in
Office under XP. Howwever I have to do this EVERY time I open an office
product (with the exception of Publisher). I have looked carefully at the
EULA for tick boxes etc but have found none.
I am perplexed and my customer is p..d off.

I have just come across a different post which says you have to accept the
EULA every time you start the program but we did not have to do this in XP.
This surely is a problem.

Try going to your Program Files directory and finding any of the Office executables (word.exe,
excel.exe etc) and right click. Choose 'Run as Administrator'. Once loaded, accept the EULA and
it shouldn't reappear.

You should post this over to the Office newsgroup but meanwhile you should read the below KB

You must accept the Office End User License Agreement every time
that you start an Office program
