OK so let's summarize so we are all on the same page.

The program you purchased is MS Office 2007 Home and Student retail edition.
You received a yellow plastic case with a disk and 25 character activation
key on a sticker inside and you used that sticker's key to activate.

When you installed the program from the CD you had first uninstalled any
trial Office 2007 program that may have been installed on your system.

When you installed the program you entered the 25 character product key and
when you start Word and then click on the Office button and then Resources
you can see at the bottom of the window "Microsoft Office Word 2007
(12.0.6212.1000) with additional information displayed behind it.

When you click on Activate on the same page it says "This product has
already been activated."

If any of this information is different than what I have posted (and please
double check again) please let us know what is different and we can probably
help.
